Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

From the figure attached,

Circle D is drawn with the radius = DG or DE

A tangent FG has been drawn at a point G on the circle from an external point F.

By theorem,

Radius of a circle is always perpendicular to the tangent, drawn to the circle from an external point.

Therefore, DG ⊥ FG.

Option B will be the correct option.
