Answer:
Yes, this is true
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a circle of centre O
Let a point P outside of circle and draw a tangent to the circle and mark that point as Q.
Join OQ and OP
we know that tangent in circle maje a 90 degree angle with centre.
so,
<OQP=90
and Triangle OPQ is a right angled triangle where angle P=90'
and OP is hypotenuse of the triangle.
so,
OP is always longest then OQ.
