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

\triangleDCP\cong\triangleDBP

Reason: SAS Postulate

Angle PCD=Angle PBD

Reason:CPCT

\angle PCD=90^{\circ}, Radius is always perpendicular to tangent

Angle PCD=Angle PBD=90^{\circ}

Angle between PB and DB=90 degrees

Therefore, DB is  a tangent.

Hence, proved.
