Question

Onsider two concentric circles, one with radius r1 and the second with radius r2, where r1>r2. Suppose a line t is tangent to the circle with radius r1. How many points are in the intersection of t and the circle with radius r2

Answer 1

0

Explanation:

A tangent line is a line that touches the circle's circumference at only one point.

Given two concentric circles one with radius
`r_1` and the second with radius
`r_2`, and
`r_1>r_2`. SInce
`r_2` is inside the smaller circle, there is no way it would intersect with the tangent line t.

Therefore, there are no points of intersection between the tangent line t and
`r_2` .
