    1. The document contains 8 circle theorems problems with solutions. The key steps and reasoning are marked correct or incorrect. 2. Problem 1 finds the measure of an angle x given that the angle at the center is twice the angle at the circumference. It is found to be 49 degrees. 3. Problem 8 finds the measure of angle CDO in a diagram using the fact that angles around a point total 180 degrees and that angles in a triangle also total 180 degrees. The angle is found to be 39 degrees.
