Question

PQ and PR are two tangents to the circle having centre O of radius 5 cm from external point P. If PQ = 4cm , find OP and PR
Please give the correct answer plss plls it is a request or it will be reported

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

4 cm is the correct answer

Answer 2

Answer:

From figure,

CA is perpendicular to AP and CB is perpendicular to BP

Again AC = BC = 4 (radius of the circle)

Also AP = PB = (Tangents from point P)

So, BPAC is a square.

=> AP = PB = BC = CA = 4 cm

So, length of tangents are 4 cm each

therefore option B will be the answer.
