Draw a circle with centre O and radius 5 cm. Draw two radii OA and OB so that they
are inclined at an angle of 130ᵒ.At A and B construct tangents to the circle. Measure the
angle between them.

Step-by-step explanation:
as we know that angle between tangent and radius is 90°
So, angle oac = 90°
angle obc = 90°
angle aob = 120° (given)
we see that aobc is a quadrilateral
so sum of all angles of quadrilateral is equal to 360°
90° + 90° + 120° + ? = 360°
? = 360° -90° - 90° - 120°
? = 60°
hence, angle between tangents is 60°

Step 1 : Draw a circle with radius of 5 cm and center " O "
Step 2 : Take any point " A " on circumference and join OA
.Step 3 : Now we draw 130° at point " O " with the help of protractor . As : ∠ AOB = 130° B lies on circumference of circle , So OA and OB are radius of our circle
Step 4 : With any radius ( Less than half of OA and center " A " draw another arc that intersect our line OA at "D " with same radius and center " D " draw another arc that intersect our previous arc at " E " And again with same radius and center " E" draw another arc that intersect our main arc at " F " . Now with same radius and take center " E " and " F " we draw arcs that intersect at " G " .
Step 5 : Now with same radius and center " B " draw another arc that intersect our line OB at "H " with same radius and center " H " draw another arc that intersect our previous arc at " I " And again with same radius and center " I" draw another arc that intersect our main arc at " J " . Now with same radius and take center " I " and " J " we draw arcs that intersect at " K " .
.Step 6 : Line AG and BK extend and meet at P .
Now we measure ∠ APB , we get
Now we measure ∠ APB , we get∠ APB = 50°
