Fan and Medal! Geometry help! 1. Circle A is inscribed in triangle RST. **image** True False 2. Given: *triangle* RST is circumscribed about circle A **image** *line*RS is tangent to circle A at X. True False

3. Given: *triangle* is circumscribed about circle A **Image above** m*angle*APT =90°. True False

OpenStudy (thedj4jc):

4. Refer to the figure to complete the following problem. Given: *triangle*RST is circumscribed about circle A. What is the measure of angle S ? *image above* A. Angle R + angle T B. 0.5 arc XQ minus arc XPQ C. 0.5 (arc XPQ - arc XQ)

holy S*** this is.... wow!!!

OpenStudy (xmissalycatx):

An inscribed circle is the largest possible circle that can be drawn on the inside of a plane figure. For a polygon, each side of the polygon must be tangent to the circle. All triangles and regular polygons have circumscribed and inscribed circles. Most other polygons do not.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no offense

OpenStudy (thedj4jc):

Okay, so true on 1. Glad for that, cause that's what I thought. :)

OpenStudy (xmissalycatx):

Yeah. #2 is also true if you read what I just sent.

OpenStudy (thedj4jc):

Yes, I see that know. Thank you.

OpenStudy (thedj4jc):

3 is false, I think?

OpenStudy (xmissalycatx):

Umm #3 I can't tell honestly. It doesn't give us numbers.

OpenStudy (thedj4jc):

Yeah, that's one of the many things I hate about questions like this. Any ideas on 4?

OpenStudy (xmissalycatx):

I think 3 is true, which means that angle TRS is also 90..

OpenStudy (thedj4jc):

Okay

OpenStudy (xmissalycatx):

And what do you think for #4, I want your opinion.

OpenStudy (thedj4jc):

I want to say A, because it looks the simplest. But at the same time, nothing in this has been simple so I think C.

OpenStudy (thedj4jc):

If that makes sense....

OpenStudy (xmissalycatx):

I honestly would go with C.

OpenStudy (thedj4jc):

Alright, thank you!
