Answer 1

Negin should use the distance formula to calculate the length of segment AB.

To determine if point B(7,4) lies on circle A with center (4,4) and radius 3, Negin needs to check if the distance between point A and point B is equal to the radius of the circle. The distance formula is appropriate for this calculation.
