Question 275511: Find the equation of the line tangent to the circle at the indicated point.
x^2 + y^2 = 25
(3,4)
I believe the circle has a center of (0,0) and a radius of 5. I do know that the point (3,4) is perpendicular to the radius of the circle.
I am not sure how to plug the line tanget points into this and find an equation for that tangent line though.
