CONSTRUCT A PAIR OF TANGENTS TO THE CIRCLE OF RADIUS 3 CM:
CONSTRUCTION STEPS:
- Draw a circle of radius 3 cm with O as center.
- Mark a point P 8 cm away from center.
- Join O and P.
- Draw perpendicular bisector of OP.
- Mark it as point Q.
- Now, PQ = OQ = 4cm.
- With Q as center and radius OQ = 4cm, draw another circle which intersects the previous circle at M and N.
- Joint PM and PN.
- PM and PN are our required tangents.
