A circle with center Q is inscribed in a circular sector AOB with a 90-degree angle and center O. The circle is tangent to OB at point E. Find the measure of angle QFE.
Within a circle's bounds we seek,
To find the
hidden code unique.
A tangent and an angle rare,
Within a sector, we'll find them there.
With careful measure and calculation,
We'll unlock
this circle's foundation.
For in its inscribed form
we see,
A world of geometry.
The tangent line, it touches close,
A point of
contact we disclose.
And from that point, we measure
true,
The angle that we seek anew.
Within this ninety-degree space,
We find the
circle's hidden grace.
Its tangents and angles now
revealed,
A treasure trove that's unconcealed.
