tangent of circle

Let us study about Tangent of Circle,
Tangent is a line which touches a circle at only one point. At the point of contact with the circle, tangent is at right angles to the radius of the circle. From any point outside a circle, the two tangent lines drawn to the circle is of equal length. Tangent to a circle is a straight line and it won't cross the circle-only touching the circle.

Explanation:

Tangent of a circle is the point where the tangent and the circle intersect with each other.

statistics help


Let us understand what is Statistics,
The science that deals with the collection, classification, analysis, and interpretation of numerical facts or data, and that, by use of mathematical theories of probability, imposes order and regularity on aggregates of more or less disparate elements.

Statistics is a discipline which is concerned with:

* designing experiments and other data collection,
* summarizing information to aid understanding,
* drawing conclusions from data, and
* estimating the present or predicting the future.

The two statements at the beginning illustrate some of these points.

In making predictions, Statistics uses the companion subject of Probability, which models chance mathematically and enables calculations of chance in complicated cases.
I hope the above explanation helped you, now let me explain about elementary statistics.
