Re: intersection of line and circle
Hi juantheron;
Usually this question has the points that make up the lines on the circle?!
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.

Re: intersection of line and circle
Hi juantheron;
And usually it is one circle with 2012 points on its circumference.
Can you copy the question exactly as it is?
