Steps:
1. Draw a line connecting the point to the center of the rectangle
2. Then construct a perpendicular bisector to the line drawn in step 1
3. Place the compass on the midpoint of the line, adjust its length to reach the end point, and draw an arc across the circle
4. Where the arc crosses the circle will be the tangent points. So connect the endpoint to the tangent point
