Question

draw tangent to a circle of ratius 6 cm from a point P at a distance of 10 cm from its centre.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A circle with centre O and a point P outside it.  

To Construction: two tangents from P to the circle.A  

Steps of construction :  

1. Draw a line segment PO: 10 cm. 2. From the point O draw a circle of radius: 5 cm. 3. Draw a perpendicular bisector of PO. Let M be the mid-point of PO. 4. Taking M as centre and OM as radius draw a circle. 5. Let this circle intersects the given circle at the points Q and R. 6. Join PQ and PR Hence, PQ and PR are the required
