Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) AP=AQ (since the tangents drawn from a external point are equal)
2) angle POA= angle QOA
by RHS congruence we can say that angle A=B=90
and OA=OB=radius
and OP common hypotenuse
so angle angle OAP=1/2PAQ
so PAQ=2OAP
and if you draw a line from P to Q
then it is going to intersect the line OA at X let say
so now angle PXO =90
and POX is also same as angle POA since the same line that means
angle OAP = angle XPO or you can say angle QPO
so
OAP=1/2PAQ
so this
angle PAQ=2OPQ as well
