ANSWER

A. Right

EXPLANATION

A tangent to a circle touches the circle at only one point.

The point where a tangent and a radius meet at is called the point of tangency.

The tangent to a circle meets the radius of a circle at a right angle.

This is because the angle between the tangent and the radius of the circle is 90°

The correct answer is A.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

One complete turn is 1 perimeter (aka circumference).

We have to find the length it turned, hence, its circumference.

The formula for circumference (C) of a circle is:

$C=2\pi r$

Where r is the radius

The radius is HALF of diameter. Given diameter is 250, the radius is:

r = 250/2 = 125 feet

Now, substituting in formula we have:

$C=2\pi r\\C=2\pi (125)\\C=250\pi\\C=785.4$

So, it turned 785.4 feet with 1 rotation.

The correct answer is A
