Step-by-step explanation:

It is known that a tangent at any point of a circle is perpendicular to the radius through the point of contact. Therefore triangle OPA is congruent to triangle OPB by RHS criterion. Thus, it is proved that the lengths of the two tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal.
