The radius of the circle passing through the points $(2,3)$, $(2,7)$ and $(5,3)$ is:
Show Hint
Always check if any two points share a coordinate. If two points have the same x-coordinate and another pair has the same y-coordinate, you have a right triangle, and the radius is simply half the distance between the two points that don't share a coordinate.
