**Question:**Let point \( E \) lie in the exterior of circle \( P \). How many tangent lines can be constructed to circle \( P \) from point \( E \)?**Explanation:**In geometry, when a point \( E \) is located outside of a circle, two tangent lines can generally be drawn from the point to the circle. These tangents are the only lines that will touch the circle at exactly one point each, maintaining the property that the tangent is perpendicular to the radius at the point of contact.
