Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Let the distance from the centre to the point be AC = 25 cm, here, A is the centre and C is the point.BC is the tangent whose length is to be found.AB is the radius of 7 cm.
To find:
Length of BC
Solution:
In triangle ABC,
By pythagoras theorem,
AC2 = AB2 + BC2
(25)2 = (7)2 + BC2
BC2 = 625 - 49
BC2 = 576
BC = 24
Therefore, length of BC is 24 cm.
