Answer:

Since Tangent touches a circle on a distinct point on the diameter of a circle only two parallel tangents can be drawn.

Answer:

As we know that a tangent is a line which touches the circle at one place,or intersect the circle at one point.

Thus a circle has infinitely many tangents.

Now if we are talking about parallel tangents ,thus a circle having infinite tangents.

When talk about parallel tangents on a diameter,than there are only two tangents.

In the attached figure:

CI is Diameter

GH is one tangent parallel to DI

ED is other tangent parallel to DI

Hope it helps you.
