The number of tangents that can be drawn...

The number of tangents that can be drawn from the point `(8,6)` to the circle `x^2+y^2-100=0` is

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Since (8,6) lies on the circle `x^2+y^2-100=0`
`8^2+6^2-100=64+36-100=100-100=0`
There is only one tangent drawn from point(8,6) on the given circle.
