Question

In the Given Figure, a circle with center O and radius 5 cm has been Drawn. If M, N and P are three points in the Plane of the circle Such that OM = 5 cm, ON= 6 cm and OP= 4 cm, Find the Position of the points M, N, and P with respect to the circle.​

Answer 1

Answer:

===================================

Since OM = 5 cm = Radius of the circle,

So, M lies on the circle.

Since ON = 6 cm > Radius of the circle,

So, N lies in the exterior of the circle.

Since OP = 4 cm < Radius of the circle,

So, P lies in the interior of the circle.
