draw a line segment AB = 8 cm. With A as center A as a centre draw a circle of radius 5cm and with B as a centre draw another circle of radius 3 cm. What did you observed.
Answers
Answer:
(i) Draw a line segment AB having a length of 8 cm.
(ii) Now, taking A as a centre draw a circle of radius 4 cm. And taking B as a centre draw a circle of radius 3 cm.
(iii) Bisect the line AB and name the mid-point as C.
(iv) Taking C as a centre and AC as radius draw a circle.
(v) Name the intersection points of the circle as P, Q, R, S.
(vi) Join the lines and these are our required tangents.

Step-by-step explanation:
Steps of Construction:
Step I: A line segment AB of 8 cm is drawn.
Step II: With A as centre and radius equal to 4 cm, a circle is drawn which cut the line at point O.
Step III: With B as a centre and radius equal to 3 cm, a circle is drawn.
Step IV: With O as a centre and OA as a radius, a circle is drawn which intersect the previous two circles at P, Q and R, S.
Step V: AP, AQ, BR and BS are joined.
Thus, AP, AQ, BR and BS are the required tangents.
