We prove that the free boundary touches the fixed one in (uniformly) tangential fashion if the boundary data $f$ and its first and second derivatives vanish at the touch-point.14 pages, 3 figuresAnalysis of PDEs35R35On the tangential touch between the free and the fixed boundaries for the two-phase obstacle-like problemtext
