i know how to determine the distance from a point to a line .... but have no idea what 'in a circle' means

anonymous · Answer

Well maybe its just in general? I am working with circles right now? thought I had to include that but, can you tell me you're solution?

anonymous · Answer

this is what I got. By radius, since it also is a segment that goes from a circles center to a point on the circle.
