Answer:

line s.

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's see what a tangent line is.

A line that touches a circle at only one point is called the tangent line of the circle.

Here we have to find the common external tangent.

Which means the line has to touch the two circle at only point on each circle.

If you look at the given figure. The line "s" touches the big circle at the point J and the smaller circle at the point K.

Therefore, the external tangent line is "line "s"
