How many parallel tangents can be drawn to a circle?

An infinite amount


The distance between two parallel tangents of a circle of the radius 4cm is?

If the tangents are parallel, they must be on opposite ends of a diameter.They are 8 cm apart.


Are tangents to a circle equal at opposite ends of a diameter?

If you draw tangents to a circle at opposite ends of a diameter, those two tangents are parallel. No matter how far you extend them, they'll never meet.


How Are tangents to a circle equal at opposite ends of a diameter?

Tangents ..... are parallel under conditions you gave. A tangent to a circle is perpindicular to the radius (diameter) at the point of contact. 2 lines perpindicular to the same line are parallel.


How many tangents can be drawn from a single point?

Two tangents can be drawn from a point outside a circle to the circle. The answer for other curves depends on the curve.


What are the tangents of all coordinates in a unit circle?

WHAT ARE THE TANGENTS OF ALL COORDINATES IN THE UNIT CIRCLE?


How many tangents can be drawn to a circle containing a point outside the circle?

Any tangent must contain a point outside the circle. So the answer to the question, as stated, is infinitely many. However, if the question was how many tangents to a circle can be drawn from a point outside the circle, the answer is two.


How many tangents can draw in a circle?

An infinite number. / There is no limit.


How many tangents can be drawn to a circle containing a point inside a circle?

No tangent No tangent


How many tangents can be drawn from a point on the circumference of a circle?

Only one which is a tangent to that circle.


Does every pair of circles have common tangents of both types?

no; for example, a circle and a circle within that circle have no common tangents.


How do you solve two tangents of circle?

That depends on what question you have been asked concerning the two tangents. All by itself, a circle with two tangents is quite content, and isn't looking for a solution.
