# This function inCircle takes a point and a radius as a parameter.
# The function returns True if the point is inside the circle and False otherwise.
def inCircle(pointX,pointY, circleRadius):
    if (pointX * pointX + pointY * pointY )<= (circleRadius * circleRadius): 
        return True 
    else: 
        return False


#Tests
print("The point is inside the circle: inCircle(5,5,2): "+str(inCircle(5,5,2))) #False
print("The point is inside the circle: inCircle(5,5,15): "+str(inCircle(5,5,15)))#True
