standard_description: Understand that shapes in different categories (e.g., rhombuses, rectangles, and others) may share attributes (e.g., having four sides), and that the shared attributes can define a larger category (e.g., quadrilaterals). Recognize rhombuses, rectangles, and squares as examples of quadrilaterals, and draw examples of quadrilaterals that do not belong to any of these subcategories.
problem_activity: Task
Consider a circle with center $O$ and let $P\,$ be a point on the circle. Suppose $L$ is a tangent line to the circle at $P$,  that is $L$  meets the circle only at $P$.
[IMG]
Show that $\overline{OP}\,$ is perpendicular to $L$.
