The circle \(x^2+y^2=25\) has centre \(O\) and radius \(5\). Triangle \(PQR\) has its vertices on this circle at \(P(0,5)\), \(Q(x,y)\) and \(R(-x,y)\). The point \(Q\) can move along the part of the circle in the fourth quadrant, and \(R\) then lies in the third quadrant, as shown in the diagram below.
