Radius can be easily calculated to be 10, so only thing left is to decide JK = OK - OJ = 10 - 6 = 4 PS: I may have mis quoted K and J but thats what that happened with figures I can not go back and check who is where...huh.. _________________ defeat accepted, I am tired, down and out, surprisingly it is quant that betrayed me all the times, and I know my limit for verbal, 47 37 690, yep %tile is changing with same raw.

From the rectangular we know that the base is 6 and the hight is 8, so by dividing 6 and 8 by 2 we got 3 and 4. Therefore, we know that this is 3:4:5 two triangles ( rectangular). Hence, the diagonal is 10 and if you draw it you will notice that the diagonal = radius so, 10-8 = 2 IMO A is the answer. _________________ Abdulla
