Tangent of a circle is what?
A tangent of a circle is a straight line that touches the circle at only one point.
What is the tangent equation of the circle 2x squared plus 2y squared -8x -5y -1 that touches the point of 1 -1 on the Cartesian plane?
If you mean: 2x^2 +2y^2 -8x -5y -1 = 0 making contact at (1, -1) Then the tangent equation in its general form works out as: 4x+9y+5 = 0

What is the tangent equation that touches the circle of x squared plus y squared -8x -y plus 5 equals 0 at the point of 1 2 on the Cartesian plane showing work?
Equation of circle: x^2 +y^2 -8x -y +5 = 0Completing the squares: (x-4)^2 +(y-0.5)^2 = 11.25Centre of circle: (4, 0.5)Slope of radius: -1/2Slope of tangent: 2Equation of tangent: y-2 = 2(x-1) => y = 2xNote that the above proves the tangent of a circle is always at right angles to its radius
