Circle question.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

show your attempt

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't have an attempt. I only know that angle R is 90 degrees because it's a tangent line.

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

what is a tangent line?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I thought it was a line that touches the circle at one point.

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

so how did you conclude that angle R is 90 degrees?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I thought that it was. If I'm wrong(it sounds like I am), can you help me?

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

what kind of information does the mRS = 84 degrees give you?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

To other people, probably something useful. To me, nothing. I don't know how to use that information to answer this problem.

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

>.< how about learn what those symbols meant?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Doesn't it just mean that that part of the circle is 84 degrees.

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

what would it look like if it were 90 degrees?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A right angle. |dw:1400309418523:dw|
