Atangent contains at most how many chords? a. 0 b. 1 c. 2 d. 3

A. 0

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the number of chords at-most that a tangent contains.

We know that chord is a straight line, whose both endpoints lie on the circle, while tangent of a circle is a straight line that touches the circle exactly at one place.

A chord intersects a circle at two points, while tangent touches circle exactly at one place.

Therefore, tangent doesn't contain any chords and option A is the correct choice.

the discriminant is 64 + 4*1*12 = 112

this is prime.
