Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Say,Radius (OA) = r
OP = 2r………given,OP= diameter of the circle
OAP = 90 (Tangent is to the radius through the point of contact)
In right OAP
sin (OPA) =
OPA = 30
Similarly OPB = 30
APB = 30 + 30 = 60
Since PA = PB (Lengths of tangents from an external point are equal)
PAB = PBA
In APB,
APB + PAB + PBA = 180 (angle sum property)
60 + 2PAB = 180
PAB = 60
PBA = 60
Since all angles are 60, ABP is equilateral triangle.
Diameter = OP
= OQ + QP
= Radius + QP
OQ = PQ = Radius.
Here, OP is the hypotenuse of right angled triangle AOP.
In ΔAOP,
sin∅ = AO/AP
sin∅ = 1/2
∅ = 30°
Thus,
∠APB = 60°
In ΔAOP,
AP = AB
=> ∠PAB = ∠PBA = 60°
Hence, APB is equilateral triangle.
