Chapter 2 solutions Problem [C][k]

Question-Given the coordinates (x, y) of a center of a circle and it’s radius,

write a program which will determine whether a point lies inside

the circle, on the circle or outside the circle.

Solution-fairly a basic mathematics.here is the solution.

#include<stdio.h>

#include<math.h> /*since we are advised to use mathematical terms */

int main()

{

int x,y,p,q;

float r;

printf("Enter the coordinates of center and radius\n");

scanf("%d%d%f",&x,&y,&r);

printf("Enter the coordinates of general point\n");

scanf("%d%d",&p,&q);

if( pow(p-x,2)+pow(q-y,2)>r)

printf("point is outside the circle\n");

else if( pow(p-x,2)+pow(q-y,2)<r)

printf("point is inside the circle\n");

else

printf("point is on the circle\n");

return 0;

}
