Question

1. Draw a circle of radius 6 cm. From a point 10 cm away from its centre, construct the pair
of tangents to the circle and measure their lengths.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Length of tangent 8 cm

AE is perpendicular to CE - tangent and radius relation

in tringle ACE

AC become hypotenuse

$ac {}^{2} = ce {}^{2} + ae {}^{2}$

then solve this By hypotenuse put values and you get ans 8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

step1; draw circle of a radius 6 cm with centre A , mark point c at 10 cm from centre

step2; find perpendicar bisector of AC

step3; take this point as centre and drawn through A and C

step4; mark at the point where this circle intersect our circle and drawn tangent through C
