Abstract
I show, for the standard theory of radiative muon capture including all couplings except and all usual diagrams, that the photon asymmetry and circular polarization satisfy and , where is the nucleon mass. This may bear on current disagreement between and since terms have never been calculated consistently and since other uncalculated corrections, some of which are discussed, may contribute in the same order.
