Question

construct a tangent to a circle of radius 3 cm from a point on the concentric circles of radius 5 cm​

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Draw a circle with radius 3 cm and centre O.

2. Draw another circle with radius 5 cm and same centre O.

3. Take a point P on the circumference of larger circle and join O to p.

4. Taking OP as diameter draw another circle which intersects the smallest circle at A and B.

5. Join A to P and B to P. Hence AP and BP are the required tangents.
