(a) To find the equation of the tangent, first calculate the gradient of line AB:
\(m_{AB} = \frac{4 - 2}{-1 - 3} = -\frac{1}{2}\).
The gradient of the tangent is the negative reciprocal: \(2\).
Using point B (3, 2), the equation of the tangent is:
\(y - 2 = 2(x - 3)\).
(b) The radius of the circle with centre B is the distance AB:
\(AB^2 = (4 - 2)^2 + (-1 - 3)^2 = 20\).
The equation of the circle is:
\((x - 3)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 20\).
(c) Substitute the equation of the tangent into the circle's equation:
\((x - 3)^2 + (2x - 6)^2 = 20\).
Expanding and simplifying:
\(5x^2 - 30x + 25 = 20\).
\(5(x^2 - 6x + 1) = 0\).
\((x - 5)(x - 1) = 0\).
Thus, \(x = 5\) or \(x = 1\).
