Can a line be tangent to one circle and a secant to the other in concentric circles?
Yes, it can as long as it is not the tangent line of the outermost circle. If it is tangent to any of the inner circles it will always cross the outer circles at two points--so it is their secant line--whereas the tangent of the outermost circle is secant to no circle because there are no more circles beyond that last one.
Which country invented trignometry?
Greece introduced trignometry
How does the number of pieces relate to the number of circles?

How do you spell secant?

Is a secant-secant angle is a central angle of a circle?
Sometimes
What is a secant of a circle?
a secant is a line containing a chord. A secant is a line that intersects the circle twice(or passes through a circle)
Where is the tangent secant angle on a circle?
The tangent secant angle is the angle between the tangent to a circle and the secant, when the latter is extended.
What is an secant in math?
Secant is a trignometric function. In a right triangle, the secant of an angle is the hypotenuse over the adjacent side. It is also the inverse of cosine. For example secant(x) = 1/cos(x)
