Given:
Radius of circle = 3cm
To Find
The distance between two parallel tangents of a circle
Explanation:
Let the center of the circle be O and the parallel tangents be a and b
The angle between these two tangents = 180°
Difference between a and b = 2r
Distance = diameter
that is 2r
Therefore 2×3
= 6 cm
Answer is 6 cm
