Answer:

False

Explanation:

The angle between a tangent and radius is right.

Use the converse theorem of Pythagoras to determine.

If the square on the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides then the triangle is right and the segment is a tangent.

longest side = 13.1 ⇒ 13.1² = 171.61

11.3² + 6.65² = 127.69 + 44.2225 = 171.9125

Since 171.61 ≠ 171.9125 the line is not a tangent
