Number of tangents from a point on a circle : If we take any ponit P then there can be three situations
 |  |  |
When the point is on the circle Exactly one tangent can be drawn to the circle from point P | When the point is outside the circle Exactly two tangents can be drawn to the circle from point P to the circle, | When the point is inside the circle In this case we cannot draw any tangent to the circle. |
Illustration: Classify the points marked in the figure with respect to the circle. The categories are One Tangent, Two Tangent and No Tangent.
One Tangent: D, B as the points lieon the circle Two Tangent: A, C as the points lie outside the circle No Tangent: E, F as the points lie inside the circle |  |
