Step-by-step explanation:
(i) Draw a circle of radius 3cm.
(ii) Draw a straight line of 8cm from the centre and give it a name say OA.
(iii) Now, draw a perpendicular bisector of the line OA.
(iv) Place the compass to the midpoint of a line, adjust its length to reach the endpoint and draw the arcs to the circle.
(v) Draw the lines which passes through the arc and endpoints of the bisector.
AR and AT are the required tangents.
