Draw a circle of radius 3.4 cm, take any point P on it. Draw tangent to the circle from point P

आकृति

उत्तर

Analysis:

seg OP ⊥ line l   ......[Tangent is perpendicular to radius]

The perpendicular to seg OP at point P will give the required tangent at P.



Steps of construction:

  1. With center O, draw a circle of radius 3.4 cm.
  2. Take any point P on the circle and draw ray OP.
  3. Draw line l ⊥ ray OP at point P.
    Line l is the required tangent to the circle at point P.
