Hey Priyansh,

● Answer -

Only one other tangent can be parallel to any given tangent of circle.

● Tangent of the circle -

  • Tangent to a circle is a line that touches the circle at exactly one point without entering the circle.
  • Tangent is always perpendicular to the radius of the circle drawn through point of contact.
  • Tangents drawn at the ends of diameter of a circle are parallel.

Hope this helps you.
