Answer:

D. Line O

Explanation:

We can simply tell which one it is by looking at the picture. A tangent line is a line that intersects at one point only. Line L doesn't even touch the circle. Line M and N touch the circle in more than one place. If we look at O, we can see that it is "scraping" the edge of the circle, which is what pretty much every tangent line looks like.

Therefore, the answer is D.
