Quadrilateral QORP is a cyclic quadrilateral.
Tangents = 2 = PR and PQ ( Given)
Therefore, OR ⊥ PR and OQ ⊥ PQ
If we draw a line from the center of a circle to its a tangent line. Therefore, then the line always perpendicular to the tangent line
Hence,
∠ORP=∠OQP =90°
∠ORP+∠OQP =180°
So, QOPR is cyclic quadrilateral.
If the sum of opposite angles of the quadrilateral is 180° then the quadrilateral is said to be cyclic
