How many tangents that are common to both circles can be drawn picture in comment below A 0 B 1 C 2 D 3 class=

Respuesta :

The answer is B. 1 because the two circles are at the edge and the tangent can only touch both of them once in a line.

Answer:

Option: B is the correct answer.

                                 B.  1

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

Tangent to a circle is a line that just touches the circle or in other words we may say that it touches the circle at exactly one point.

Here by looking at the figure we see that there is a circle inside the other circle and meets at exactly one point.

Hence, now for such a figure there exist just one tangent that passes through the two circle at the point of intersection of the two circles.

                       Hence, option: B is correct.
