In geometry, a secant is defined as a line that intersects a circle at two points, effectively cutting through it. On the other hand, a tangent is a special type of line that touches a circle at exactly one point, known as the point of tangency, before continuing on its path without entering the circle. For example, if point P represents the point of tangency, the tangent line only grazes the circle at that specific point. This distinction is crucial for understanding the properties and relationships within circle geometry.
