Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi sis
Let O be the center of smaller circle and O' be center of larger circle.
CD is chord of bigger circle which touches the smaller circle at point N.
Line AMB is common tangent to both the circles.
Postulates to Remember:
1. Perpendicular from center to chord bisects the chord.
2. Line from center of circle to point of contact of tangent makes an angle of 90 degree with the tangent at that point.
O'N ⊥ CD, ON⊥CD, OM⊥AB.
CN=ND
∠CNM=∠DNM=Each being 90°
Line segment NM is common.
ΔCNM ≅ ΔDNM→→[SAS]
So, ∠CMN=∠DMN→→CPCT
Hence , MN bisect angle CMD
I hope it will help you ✌️✌️
