To find: the standard equation of sphere.
Answer to Problem 12CR
The standard equation of sphere is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Endpoints of a diameter:
Formula used: the equation of the sphere with centre and radius,
the distance formula,
the midpoint formula,
Calculation: since, endpoints of diameter are given, the centre of the sphere will be the midpoint of the endpoints of diameter, so to find the centre first substitute in the midpoint formula and then simplify,
The radius of the sphere is the half of the distance between of the endpoints of diameter,
Thus, the radius of sphere is
Thus, The standard equation of sphere is
