Answer: - We need to draw a tangent to a circle of a radius 25mm from a point on the circumference of the circle and write the steps for it. For drawing, please see the attached image.

The steps to draw tangent on the circumference of the circle are: -

Step 1: First, measure the length in the compass from the scale as 25mm, and then draw the circle that is having a radius = 25mm on the sheet at the center O.

Step 2: Then, you need to join the center of the circle O with any point P on the circumference of the circle. I.e., OP is the radius of the circle.

Step 3: Then, draw a line perpendicular to the radius OP of the circle through the point P. This line will be a tangent to the circle at P that is constructed on the circumference of the circle.

About Tangent of a circle: -

  • The Tangent of a circle is a line that is made on the circumference of the circle and touches the circle exactly at one point.
  • The point at which the tangent touches the circle at its circumference is known as ‘the point of contact’.
  • The radius of the circle and the tangent are drawn perpendicular to each other at the point of contact on the circle.
