Draw a circle with center O and radius 3.4. Draw a chord MN of length 5.7 cm in a circle. Draw tangents to the circle from point M and N

आकृति

उत्तर

Analysis:
`{:("seg ON" ⊥ "line  l"),("seg OM" ⊥ "line m"):}}`  ......[Tangent theorem]

The perpendicular to seg ON and seg OM at points N and M respectively will give the required tangents at N and M.

Steps of construction:

  1. With center O, draw a circle of radius 3.4 cm
  2. Draw chord MN of length 5.7 cm in the circle.
  3. Draw rays OM and ON.
  4. Draw line l ⊥ ray ON at point N.
  5. Draw line m ⊥ ray OM at point M.
  6. Lines l and m are the required tangents at points M and N to the circle.
