Question

what is the measure of an angle made by a tangent and the radius of a circle at the point of contact? ​

Answer 1

90∘

The radius and tangent of a circle at a point of contact is always perpendicular to each other. So the angle is 90∘.

Answer 2

$\sf\huge{90°}$

The measure of the angle made by a tangent and the radius of a circle at the point of contact is 90 degrees, also known as a right angle. This is a property of tangents to circles, and can be proven using the Pythagorean Theorem and the fact that a tangent line is perpendicular to the radius at the point of contact.
