in triangle AOT. and BOT
At = Bt =12 cm
OT is common
so both triangle are congrant so we can say that AO will be equal to OB

If you can show ∆TBO and ∆TAO are congruent, then BO = AO.
To show congruency,
_____________________________
in ∆TBO and ∆TAO:
TB = TA (given)
Angle BTO = Angle ATO (how? you have to show it)
TO = TO (given)
Thus ∆TBO and ∆TAO congruent by SAS rule.
____________________________
Thus OA = OB
================================
================================
Coming to Angle BTO = Angle ATO (how? you have to show it)
Since BA is tangent to circle, AOT = BOT = 90
Since ∆TAB is isosceles, TBO = TAO
Two of the angles of the triangles are same.
So third will also be same.(How?)
Hence BTO = ATO
