CONSTRUCT A PAIR OF TANGENTS TO THE CIRCLE OF RADIUS 3 CM:

CONSTRUCTION STEPS:

  1. Draw a circle of radius 3 cm with O as center.
  2. Mark a point P 8 cm away from center.
  3. Join O and P.
  4. Draw perpendicular bisector of OP.
  5. Mark it as point Q.
  6. Now, PQ = OQ = 4cm.
  7. With Q as center and radius OQ = 4cm, draw another circle which intersects the previous circle at M and N.
  8. Joint PM and PN.
  9. PM and PN are our required tangents.
