From a point outside a given circle, the maximum number of tangents drawn from that point to the circle is/are
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is D 2
Let P be the point outside a circle having centre O.
Clearly, PA and PB are the only tangents that can be drawn from the external point to the circle.
Thus, the maximum number of tangents that can be drawn from an external point to a circle is two.
Hence, the correct answer is option d.
