Hello
frnds good morning..


Draw a circle of radius 4 cm. Mark the center as 0. Mark a point P outside the circle at a distance of 7 cm from the center. Construct two tangents to the circle from the external point P. Measure and write down the length of any one tangent..​

Answer:

pair of tangents to the circle constructed

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 : Draw a circle of radius 4 cm using compass taking length = 4cm and center O

Step 2 : take any point P . 7 cm away from O,

Step 3 : Join OP

Step 4 : Draw perpendicular bisector of OP and let say it bisect at M

Step 5 : taking length = OM = PM & taking M as center , cut the Circle at point A & B

Step 6 : Join PA & PB

PA & PB are the required Tangent

Draw perpendicular bisector of OP. Let is bisect at point M

With M as center and radius OM or MP draw another circle.

Mark the points of intersection of both the circles as A and B.

Join points P, A; point P, B.

steps of construction -

1. Draw a circle of radius 4 cm and centre 0 .

2. Draw a radius and produce it to P, such that OP = 7 cm.

3. Bisect OP at M.

4. With M as centre and MP as radius, draw a circle to intersect the given circle at Q and R.

5. Join PQ and PR. PQ and PR are the required tangents and length of the tangents is 5.74 cm.

please mark as brainliest I really need it
