Question

Draw a circle with radius 3.5 cm. Construct tangents to the circle from a point at a distance of 7.3 cm from the centre.

Answer 1

Answer:

Draw a circle of radius 3.5cm

Mark a point P at a distance of 7cm from center O in any direction

Join OP and locate its midpoint M

Taking M as center draw a circle of radius OM=3.5cm

This circle cuts the initial circle at A and B. Join AP and BP

AP and BP are the tangents from P
