Yes, circles that share one and only one point are tangent to each other.
Nothing "happens". They meet, and the rays continue merrily along their ways, never to meet again!
When two tangent lines meet outside a circle, they create an external angle between them. The lengths of the segments from the points of tangency to the point where the tangents meet are equal, meaning the segments are equal in length. Additionally, the angle formed between the two tangents is equal to half the difference of the arcs that are intercepted by these tangents on the circle. This relationship illustrates the geometric properties that govern tangents and circles.
orgin? or intersection?
No, they meet at a single point.
3 and they meet in a single point called Circumcentre
The radius and the tangent are perpendicular at the point on the circle where they meet.

Tangent:In geometry, the tangent line (or simply the tangent) is a curve at a given point and is the straight line that "just touches" the curve at that point. As it passes through the point where the tangent line and the curve meet the tangent line is "going in the same direction" as the curve, and in this sense it is the best straight-line approximation to the curve at that point.Chord:A chord of a curve is a geometric line segment whose endpoints both lie on the outside of the circle.
Tangent plane "is the floor". I never heard that the touching point has a specific name.
orgin? or intersection?
Early astronomers called this an "epicycle"; a whirling circle whose center was traveling in a larger circle. They used this to try to explain the observed motions of the planets, because Aristotle said that all motion in the heavens was circular, and so ellipses were right out!
Ask you're parents!
No, they meet at a single point.
The four states that meet at a single point are Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah at the Four Corners Monument.
The answer depends on the context. In the context of a curve, a tangent is a straight line that touches the line without intersecting it. The antonym does not have a specific name because it could be a straight line that does not meet the curve at all, or it could be one that crosses the curve. Note that even a tangent can cross the curve at some other [distant] point(s).
If the lines are identical, then the whole lines. If not they can either not meet at all or at a single point: the point of intersection.
