Question

find the length of the tangent to a circle with Centre O and radius 3 centimetre from a point P such that opis equal to 5centimetres

Answer 1

Answer:

Draw a circle with radius 3 cm and centre O.

Draw a line segment OP = 7 cm

Make perpendicular bisector of OP which intersects OP at point O’.

Take O’P as radius and draw another circle.

From point P, draw tangents to points of intersection between the two circles.

=7²-3²

= 49-9

=40

∴PQ=PR=40cm

IF IT IS CORRECT..PLEASE GIVE ME A BRAINLIEST!!

Answer 2

40 cm .................
