    Resolved [Resolved] Finding Min X on a circle

    How is it possible to find the minimum X coordinate on the circle between the two lines?
    Y1, Y2, R are known. The centre of the circle is at (0, 0)

    In the picture the MinX would be –R, but the boundary lines can be placed anywhere in the circle, they are always parallel with the X axis.

    Thanks
