Answer:

A tangent is a straight line or plane that touches a curve or curved surface at a point, but if extended does not cross it at that point.

External Tangents: Does not intersect the segment joining the centers of the two circles.

Internal Tangents: Intersects the segment joining the centers of the two circles.
