In geometry, a line segment is a part of a straight line that is bounded by two distinct end points, and contains every point on the line that is between its endpoints.It is a special case of an arc, with zero curvature.
The radius of a circle is perpendicular to the tangent line through its endpoint on the circle's circumference. Conversely, the perpendicular to a radius through the same endpoint is a tangent line. The resulting geometrical figure of circle and tangent line has a reflection symmetry about the axis of the radius.
A circle circumference and radius are proportional. The area enclosed and the square of its radius are proportional. The constants of proportionality are 2 π and π respectively. The circle that is centred at the origin with radius 1 is called the unit circle. Thought of as a great circle of the unit sphere, it becomes the Riemannian circle.
A key intuition of this sort of intersection problem is to represent each shape as an equation which is true for all points on the shape. Solving them as a system of two simultaneous equations finds the points which belong to both shapes, which is the intersection. The equations below were solved using Maple.
The radian is determined by the circumference of a circle that is equal in length to the radius of the circle (n = 2 π = 6.283...). It is the angle subtended by an arc of a circle that has the same length as the circle's radius. The symbol for radian is rad. One turn is 2 π radians, and one radian is 180° / π , or about 57.2958 degrees.

If the answer for a given is denoted by () then the following list shows the first few values of () for an integer between 0 and 12 followed by the list of values rounded to the nearest integer: 1, 5, 13, 29, 49, 81, 113, 149, 197, 253, 317, 377, 441 (sequence A000328 in the OEIS )
Harvard tied with Dartmouth and Columbia atop the conference at 5-2 this season, but scored head-to-head wins over both teams. Officially, the Ivy League recognized all three teams as co-champions.
