The correct answer is:

A) A tangent is never a secant.

Explanation:

A tangent is a line that touches a circle in exactly one point. A secant is a line that touches a circle in two different points.

Since a tangent only touches once and a secant touches twice, there is no way a tangent can be a secant.
