Question

What is the distance between two parallel tangents of a circle

having radius 4.5cm? Justify your answer.

​

Answer 1

Final Answer :9 cm  

1) We know :  

Distance between any two parallel tangents in a circle is equal to measure of a Diameter .  

For example, Look at Pic;

Distance between any parallel tangents = 2*r=2*4.5=9 cm  

This can be seen as since tangents are parallel and both touches the circle at one point .

Hence, we can say a length of Diameter will fulfill the perpendicular gap between them .

So, Distance between two parallel tangents will be twice of length of radius or Diameter only.
