GC2
Tangents to a circle from a point are congruent. (Corollary)
I brought my camera to an ice cream parlor last week in hopes of finding an example of the corollary stated above. According to this corollary, tangents to a circle from a point are congruent. I found my ice cream cone to be a great example of this. In the picture, segments AB and AC are both tangent to the circle (scoop) at points B and C. This should assure that tangent AB is congruent to tangent AC, which was further proven when I measured the segments using GSP.
