5. Draw a line segment AB and mark a point C on it. Draw a line CE perpendicular to AB.
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
steps for construction
· draw AB=5cm
· with A as centre cut an arc of 3cm on AB and mark it C
· with A as centre and radius 2.5cm, draw an arc and mark it O
· with O as centre and radius 2.5cm, draw a circle so that points A and C lie on the circle formed
· join OB
· draw perpendicular bisector of OB to obtain mid point of OB, M
· with M as the centre and radius equal to OM, draw a circle to cut the previous circle at point P and Q
· join PB and QB, PB and QB are required tangents to the given circle from exterior point B
QB=PB=3cm
The length of the tangents is 3cm

Answer:
★ draw A line AB.
★ mark A point C on it.
★ with A and B as centre and radius more than AP and BP, draw two arcs intersecting at point E.
★ join CP.
★ EC is perpendicular to line AB.
