Circles and Tangents Examples

In mathematics, a tangent line to a plane curve at a given point is a straight line that "just touches" the curve at that point. More precisely, a tangent line is a line that has the same direction as the curve at the point where it touches the curve, and has a point of contact with the curve at that same point.
