A)outside circle W

B)inside circle W

C)on circle W

D)cannot be determined

Respuesta :

Answer: Option A is correct; Point Q is outside circle W

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the attached picture for details.

If the circle is given as having center W, this means  the radius starts from point W and ends at any point on the circumference. The radius has been given as 5 units, and this also means any measurement from point W to the circumference is either equal to or less than the radius which is 5 units. Any measurement that is greater than 5 would be outside of the circumference.

Point Q is 6 units away from point W, therefore point Q is outside the circumference, that is, outside circle W.
