Tangents to a Circle

This video tutorial explains the number of tangents that can be drawn from a point relative to a circle. It covers three cases: when the point is inside the circle, on the circle, and outside the circle. For a point inside the circle, no tangents can be drawn. For a point on the circle, only one tangent is possible. For a point outside the circle, two tangents can be drawn. The video provides a clear explanation of each scenario with examples.
