Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Radius of the circle=3cm, OP=7cm.

Construction:

(i) With O as the centre draw a circle of radius 3cm.

(ii) Mark a point P at a distance of 7cm from O and join OP.

(iii) Draw the perpendicular bisector of OP. Let it meet OP at M.

(iv) With M as centre and MO as radius, draw another circle.

(v) Let the two circles intersect at T and T'.

(vi) Join PT and PT'. They are the required tangents. Length of the tangent, PT=6.3cm.

Verification:

In the right angled Δ OPT,

PT=

Answer:

firstly draw a circle of radius 3cm now take a point from it's radius measures 7cm. now draw a perpendicular bisector of that 7cm line segment then make an another circle of half the radius of that 7cm radius , the second circle should intersect the first circle now draw two tangents on that two interesting points of the circle joining point p.

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helped.
