Question

draw a circle with radius 3cm and construct a pair of tangents from a point 8cm away from the centre​

Answer 1

Answer:

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

Draw a circle of radius 3 cm with O as center. Mark a point P 8 cm away from center. Join O and P. ... With Q as center and radius OQ = 4cm, draw another circle which intersects the previous circle at M and N.

Step-by-step explanation:

Steps of construction

Take a point O and draw circle with radius 3cm

Take point P at a distance of 8cm from the circle.

Join OP and bisect it. Let M be its mid-point

With M as centre and MP as radius , draw a circle to intersect the circle at Q and R.

Join PQ & PR . then PQ and PR are required tangents.

hope both the steps helps you☺
