Question

construction a tangent to a circle with center p and radius 3.2 cm at any point m on it​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Radius of the circle=3.2cm.

Construction:

(i) With O as the centre draw a circle of radius 3.2cm.

(ii) Take a point P on the circle and join OP.

(iii) Draw an arc of a circle with centre at P cutting OP at L.

(iv) Mark M and N on the arc such that

LM

⌢

=

MN

⌢

=LP.

(v) Draw the bisector PT of the angle ∠MPN.

(vi) Produce TP to T' to get the required tangent T'PT.
