Question

find the length of a tangent drawn from a point 8 centimetre away from the centre of a circle of radius 6 CM

Answer 1

hello users

Solution
In triangle OPQ
OP is the Radius of circle 
PQ is the length of tangent drawn
And
OQ is the distance of the point from centre .

Using Pythagoras theorem 
H² = B² + P² 

Here
OQ² = OP² + PQ²

=> PQ = √ ( OQ² - OP²) 

=> PQ = √ ( 8² - 6²)
= √ 64 - 36
= √28 
=  5.291 ≈ 5.3 cm Answer
