Question

The angle between a tangent to a circle and the radius drawn at the point of contact is(a) 60° (b) 30° (c) 45° (d) 90°

Answer 1

hey dear
here is your answer ✌ ✌

=============

the angle between a tangent to a circle and the radius drawn at the point of contact is 90 degree.

hope it helped ^_^

Answer 2

Answer: (d) 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

A tangent is a straight line that touches a circle at a point such that if it extended in any of the side then it does not cross the circle at that point.

When a tangent is drawn then the shortest distance between the center of circle and the point of contact of tangency is described the radius at the point of contact.

Since, the shortest distance between a line and a point is known as perpendicular which make 90° angle .

Thus, The angle between a tangent to a circle and the radius drawn at the point of contact is 90°.
