Question

Draw a circle of radius 2.5cm with O as centre. Mark a point 'p'7.5cm away from the centre. Through 'p' draw the tangent(s) of the circle.( Answer step by step)​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

steps of construction :

1. Draw a circle with radius 2.5 cm
2. Point a point p out side of circle of distance 7.5 cm away from the centre of circle
3. Now draw a perpendicular bisector of o and p
4. Point the intersecting point as M
5. Now take a compass place it on the point M
6. Draw a circle of radius of diatance OM
7. This circle intersect the previous circle at two points point the two points as A and B
8. Now join A to P and B to P
9. AP and BP are two tangents of a circle
