Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
AB, BC and CA are tangents to the circle at P, N and M.
∴ OP = ON = OM = r (radius of the circle)
By Pythagoras theorem,
CA2 = AB2 + BC2
⇒ 10 = AB2 + 62
⇒ AB2 = 64
⇒ AB = 8 cm
Area of ∆ABC = Area ∆OAB + Area ∆OBC + Area ∆OCA
24= 1/2rAB +BC+ CA)
24=1/2r(24)
r=24*2/24
r=2
hope its helpful and mark me as brainliest
