tangent of circle

Let us study about Tangent of Circle,
Tangent is a line which touches a circle at only one point. At the point of contact with the circle, tangent is at right angles to the radius of the circle. From any point outside a circle, the two tangent lines drawn to the circle is of equal length. Tangent to a circle is a straight line and it won't cross the circle-only touching the circle.

Explanation:

Tangent of a circle is the point where the tangent and the circle intersect with each other.
