correct answer will be marked as brainlist and wrong answers will be reported​

Answer 1

Answer:

Lengths of the tangents are 8.4 cm each (approx.)

Explanation:

Steps of construction:

1) Draw a Circle of diameter 7 cm, i.e., radius 3.5 cm, with centre O

2) Take a point M away from the circle, such that OM = 9cm

3) Draw the Perpendicular Bisector of OM, which is intersecting OM at P

4) With P as the centre and OP as the radius, draw two arcs, cutting the circle at Q and R

5) Join MQ and MR

6) By measurement, MQ = MR = 8.4 cm (approx.)
