Question

Complete the following activity to draw a tangent to a circle at a point on the circle.
Draw a circle of radius 4 cm and centre o
Take a point P on the circle and draw ray OP
Draw a perpendicular line to ray OP at point P
Name the perpendicular line as I,
Lis the tangent at point P.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Steps of constructions-

1. Take a point O as a center and with radius 4 cm ,Draw a circle.

2.Take a point Point on its circumference .

3.Join O and P.

4.Draw a perpendicular to OP at point P.

5.Draw line APB amking angle of 90

∘

with OP,i.e.∠OPA=90

∘

.

Then APB is the required tangents.
