On 15, you know the quadrilateral is a trapezoid and also you know that it is cyclic. What does this tell you about the angles of the trapezoid?

On 16, try using Power of a Point. Note the point R must be outside of the circle for the problem to make sense.

Hey David. The hints I put in there had the wrong numbers, but were for the problems you were asking (it said 16 instead of 15 and 17 instead of 16, but it is fixed now).
