Complete the following statements:

1. The angle between a tangent and the radius drawn to the point of contact …
2. The angle between a tangent and a chord …

1. The angle between a tangent and the radius drawn to the point of contact is always 90 degrees (a right angle).

2. The angle between a tangent and a chord can vary, depending on the position of the chord relative to the point of contact. However, the angle is always equal to the angle formed by the tangent and the intercepted arc of the chord, which is known as an inscribed angle.
