Tangent To A Circle

Equation Of Tangent To Circle

Common Tangents of Circles

If we draw a tangents to a circle at a given point on it, when the centre of the circle is known, then the angle between the tangent and radius of the circle is

To construct the tangents to a circle from a point outside it.

The angle between two tangents to a circle may be 0^(@) .

CP and CQ are tangents to a circle with centre O.ARB is another tangent touching the circle at R. If CP=11cm,BC=7cm, Then the length BR is :
