Nope.Well that’s good
So you’ve agreed that everything on that diagram is correct.
Let's see.

An angle of 90°

Ok, so we're clear. I knew you knew that but I'm just showing people that intersecting lines do not have to show a right angle.
And this is where we come back to the circle and lines.
This is why I'm asking for individual clarification and not a copy and paste answer.
Individually, yes.But you have
Circle
Lines
Right angle
Words
As an end product to that as in marrying all up....no.
Unless you prove as to why it makes a right angle.
So we've now established that intersecting straight lines can make acute or obtuse angles. They can also make right angles. The straight lines in the diagram make a right angle to each other.
Do you agree?

Why doesn’t it make a right angle
The diagram clearly shows a right angle.
You obviously don’t want to agree in full as you have no idea what’s coming next do you?
The lad who posted it (if I remember correctly) uses geometry/maths etc in his job so the relevance will become apparent.
I think he knows what comes next, that's why he won't agree it's accurateWhy doesn’t it make a right angle

Absolutely.
Yep but we need to know how in terms of accuracy and how it comes about in terms of what it's reference from.
How?
Not entirely until I am shown how.
When it becomes apparent we can then get to the nitty gritty.Why doesn’t it make a right angle

Because they are two straight lines at 90° to each other. Simple as that. The circle has no bearing on the angle between the straight lines.
I know you're deliberately trying to obfuscate this but it really is that simple. The two lines intersect and form a right angle to each other. It's a fact.

How?
So why use it?
Simple as in, how?
It's not a fact. Two intersecting lines do not have to be at right angles.
But it has been shown to work since the last century.
And if you dispute the poles existing why does it behave differently at the equator (or countries on what we call the equator on your lemon squeezer)
Why would it be diffeent in just these areas even inside a building in case you bring up wind or pressure variations blah blah?
He doesn't have an argument. If he had an argument it could be debated, information exchanged and perhaps even viewpoints altered. What he has is a paranoid rejection of STEM subjects and a refusal to engage with either logic or reason. AS has already been said, on more than one occasion, he's a 60 year old equivalent of a child shouting "nah, nah, cant hear you". It's tragic.

The dense layers crippled it unhindered
They don't have to but they do in this case.
Shutters coming down again as the brainwashed faith is facing another test.
Denial of right angles now.
Glad he's one of yours...........

It's f***ing bizarre behaviour. He's so scared that his world might come apart at the seams that he has spent seven entire pages worth of posts avoiding the question and then flat out denying that the most basic mathematical concepts of a tangent and a normal to circle.
Clearly I've gone too fast for you.
Let's start with one less line on the diagram.
If we draw a circle, and then draw a straight line that only just touches the edge of that circle, we call that the "tangent".
