Question

Construt a tangent to a circle of radius 4cm from a point which is at a distance of 8

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1)draw a cixle of 4 cm and name center as o

2)extend the radius outside the cicle. Which totally measures(including radius )8cm and name it as p

3)Then using compass by taking o as center and p as center draw perpendicular bisectors and join them.

4)and name the point of contact as z. By taking as center draw acicle of radius of length zo and then join p to the point where both circles touches each other and name it as m and n pm and pn are the required tangents
