Tangents of the circle = TP and TQ (Given)
Centre of the circle = O (Given)
The tangents drawn from an external point to the circle are always equal in length.
Let T be the external point which is equal in length thus,
TP = TQ
= TA + AP = TB + BQ --- eq 1
Let A be the external point which is also equal in length, thus,
AP = AR --- eq 2
Let B be the external point, thus,
BQ = BR --- eq 3
Substituting the value of AP and BQ from equation 1, 2, and 3, -
TA + AR = TB + BR
Hence proved.
