Original question and givens

Use one equal-unit orthonormal Euclidean Cartesian frame. The circle boundary has center O=(11, -20) and radius r=23≥0. Change only its x-coordinate by (1)r. Give the resulting axial boundary point as an ordered pair.

  • G001 — Use one equal-unit orthonormal Euclidean Cartesian frame. The circle boundary has center O=(11, -20) and radius r=23≥0. Change only its x-coordinate by (1)r. Give the resulting axial boundary point as an ordered pair.

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

S001 · implies

Before

orthonormal equal-length units;r=23≥0

After

C={P:distance(P,O)=r} is a boundary,not a filled disk

Conditions: none

The circle is the boundary at distance exactly r from the center,not the filled disk.For r=0 use the degenerate singleton{O},with no inside points and diameter length0.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: circle_boundary_convention · Uses: G001

S002 · calculation

Before

radius squared := square(23)

After

radius squared = 529

Conditions: none

The square of the nonnegative radius is the distance-comparison threshold.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S001

S003 · calculation

Before

signed radial displacement := mul(1, 23)

After

signed radial displacement = 23

Conditions: none

Multiply the radius by the specified direction sign;only the selected coordinate changes.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S002

S004 · calculation

Before

point coordinate0 := sum(11, 23)

After

point coordinate0 = 34

Conditions: none

Add displacement to the center;the unselected coordinate adds0 and is retained.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S003

S005 · calculation

Before

point coordinate1 := sum(-20, 0)

After

point coordinate1 = -20

Conditions: none

Add displacement to the center;the unselected coordinate adds0 and is retained.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S004

S006 · calculation

Before

coordinate difference0 := sub(34, 11)

After

coordinate difference0 = 23

Conditions: none

Subtract the center coordinate from the point coordinate;do not square absolute coordinates instead.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S005

S007 · calculation

Before

coordinate square0 := square(23)

After

coordinate square0 = 529

Conditions: none

Square this coordinate difference;a negative difference still contributes a nonnegative square.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S006

S008 · calculation

Before

coordinate difference1 := sub(-20, -20)

After

coordinate difference1 = 0

Conditions: none

Subtract the center coordinate from the point coordinate;do not square absolute coordinates instead.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S007

S009 · calculation

Before

coordinate square1 := square(0)

After

coordinate square1 = 0

Conditions: none

Square this coordinate difference;a negative difference still contributes a nonnegative square.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S008

S010 · calculation

Before

squared distance := sum(529, 0)

After

squared distance = 529

Conditions: none

In an orthonormal equal-unit frame,the Pythagorean relation adds the squared differences.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S009

S011 · implies

Before

squared distance=529;r²=529

After

(34, -20)

Conditions: none

Substitute back to check circle membership;when r=0 every specified axis and direction yields the center.
