Answer:

AB is not a tangent to the circle

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle between a tangent and the radius at the point of contact = 90°

Using Pythagoras' identity to determine if the triangle is right at A

If the square of the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides then A is right.

longest side = 15 , then 15² = 225

8² + 9² = 64 + 81 = 145 ≠ 225

Then AB is not a tangent to the circle
