Question 23 • Mathematics I

All measurements of circle cap A can be determined using which of the following?

Answer
A
the scale factor between circle cap A and a larger circle
B
the location of the center of circle cap A on the coordinate plane
C
the scale factor between circle cap A and a smaller circle
D
the radius of circle cap A

Explanation

A circle is completely determined by its radius: the radius gives its size, and every point on the circle is that distance from the center. A scale factor only compares sizes and does not give the circle’s actual measurements without additional information. The center’s location gives position, not size. Thus, the radius of circle cap A determines its measurements.
