How To Draw A Line Tangency To A Circle

This document provides instructions for two geometry exercises: 1) How to draw a line tangent to a circle by drawing a line from the point to the center, drawing an arc through them, and extending the line from the point through the arc's point of tangency. 2) How to draw a line tangent to two circles by drawing a line between their centers, an arc through the centers, using compass lengths to find the intersection point and extending lines through it to find the tangent line. The questions ask to construct the given views using only geometric constructions, showing methods to find centers, radii and tangency points.
