Geometry 9. 2 Tangents
Tangent Definition A line in the plane of a circle that intersects the circle in exactly one point. ta ng en t
Theorem If a line is tangent to a circle, then the line is perpendicular to the radius drawn to the point of tangency. ●
Converse of the previous Theorem If a line in the plane of a circle is perpendicular to a radius at its outer endpoint, then the line is tangent to the circle. ●
Corollary Tangents to a circle from a point are congruent. ● ●

Tangent Circles Two coplanar circles that are tangent to the same line at the same point. There are two types: internally tangent circles externally tangent circles
Circumscribed Polygons A polygon is circumscribed about a circle if each of its sides is tangent to the circle. A circle is inscribed in a polygon if each of the sides of the polygon is tangent to the circle.
