In geometry a straight line that touches a curve is called a tangent.
If you mean a line of y = 2x+5/4 and a curve of y^2 = 10x Then it works out that the line touches the curve at: (5/8, 5/2)
It is a straight line that touches the curve such that the line is perpendicular to the radius of the curve at the point of contact.

tangent
A tangent at that point where a straight line just touches a curve and a secant line when the straight line bisects the curve.
(2, -2)
A tangent
A tangent line touches a curve or the circumference of a circle at just one point.
It is (-0.3, 0.1)
