  At present we don't have a tangent mate but depending on your case you can pick appropriate mate connectors on the V grove and cylinder and use a cylindrical mate instead

  I have shared a document with this type of mate https://cad.onshape.com/documents/b2db92d794a14dbb9e76524e/w/bb67dc6eda004ec7b0c29000/e/6222639d504e4b1fb8760020
  
  I have created a part studio mate connector where the grove center mate connector is made with sketch geometry

  Here is a public document showing a number of different mating examples (including tangent) typically found in weldments.

  I used a slider mate in this project using v groove extrusions. Its very much work in progress but the wheeled carriage slides back and forth.
