Question

Create and solve a circle conic section equation for a tube with a diameter of 100 feet

Answer 1

If the circle diam. is 100 ft., then the radius is 50 ft.

Assuming that the center of the circular cross section is at the origin, the equation of this circle of radius 50 ft. is

x^2 + y^2 = (50 ft)^2 (answer)
