Will someone like to help me with this question. I am freaking stuck on it and can't understand it. I need help please!!!!
The question is...Determine whether a tangent line to circle O is shown in the diagram, for AB = 7.75, OB = 4, and AO = 8.75. Explain your reasoning. (the figure is not drawn to scale.)
