2L solution[]
Let O be the center of the circle and A the point on it.
- Construct line OA
- Construct the perpendicular to the line OA from point A
3E solution[]

Let O be the center of the circle and A the point on it.
- Construct a circle with an arbitrary center B on the circle and radius AB, intersecting circle O at C
- Construct the circle with center A and radius AC, intersecting circle B at D
- Construct line AD
Explanation[]
Solution 2L is easy as a tangent is simply a line perpendicular to a radius at a point on the circle.
Solution 3E is an application of Thales
