Question
### A right triangle is shown in the graph.

![Graph Description]

The graph shows a right triangle with vertices at points \((a, b)\) and \((x, y)\). The horizontal leg of the triangle extends from point \((a, b)\) to \((x, b)\), measuring \(x - a\), and the vertical leg extends from point \((x, b)\) to \((x, y)\), measuring \(y - b\). The hypotenuse of the triangle, labeled \(c\), extends from \((a, b)\) to \((x, y)\).

### Part A: 
Use the Pythagorean Theorem to derive the standard equation of the circle, with center at \((a, b)\) and a point on the circle at \((x, y)\). Show all necessary math work.

### Part B: 
If \((a, b) = (5, -2)\) and \(c = 10\), determine the domain and range of the circle.

### Part C: 
Is the point (10, 2) inside the border of the circle if \((a, b) = (5, -2)\) and \(c = 10\)? Explain using mathematical evidence.

---

#### Diagram Explanation:

- **Axes**: The horizontal and vertical axes are labeled as \(x\) and \(y\), respectively.
- **Triangle**: A right triangle with its right angle at \((x, b)\). The hypotenuse \(c\) connects \((a, b)\) and \((x, y)\). 
- **Points**:
  - \((a, b)\) is the center of the circle.
  - \((x, y)\) is a point on the circumference of the circle.
- **Distances**: 
  - The horizontal leg has the length \(x - a\).
  - The vertical leg has the length \(y - b\).

This detailed explanation and depiction will aid in understanding how to derive the circle's equation and solve subsequent parts conceptually and mathematically.
