Answer with Step-by-step explanation:
In triangle ACP
AP=PC
Radius of circle are equal
Angle ACP=Angle CAP
Angle made by two equal sides are equal
AC is parallel to PD
Angle CAP=Angle DPB
Reason: Corresponding angles are equal
Angle ACP=Angle CPD
Reason:Alternate interior angle
Angle DPB=Angle CPD
In triangle DCP and DBP
PC=PB
Reason: all radius of circle are equal
PD=PD
Reason:Common segment
Angle DPB=Angle CPD
DCPDBP
Reason: SAS Postulate
Angle PCD=Angle PBD
Reason:CPCT
, Radius is always perpendicular to tangent
Angle PCD=Angle PBD=
Angle between PB and DB=90 degrees
Therefore, DB is a tangent.
Hence, proved.
