Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

If segment AB is tangent to the smaller circle, than AB⊥OR. Consider two right triangles AOR and BOR. In these triangles:

  • OR is common leg;
  • AO=OB as radii of larger circle;
  • ∠ARO=∠BRO, because AB⊥OR.

By HL theorem, ttriangles AOR and BOR are congruent. This gives you that AR=RB.

Answer:

R is the mid point of AB so  AR = RB

Step-by-step explanation:

Points to remember

The diameter of a circle and a chord is mutually  perpendicular then the diameter divide the chord in two equal parts.

<u>To prove AR = RB</u>

From the figure we get, AB is the tangent at R of small circle.

Therefore OR ⊥ AB

O is the center of both circles.

AB is the chord of large circle.

So The diameter of large circle passing through R is perpendicular  to AB

Therefore AR = RB

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

A) 16.0 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula C=2 x pi x r

d=2 x r

Solve for d

d= C/pi = 50/pi = 15.91549

And it says to round to the nearest tenth, so the answer is A) 16.0mm
