In the given figure, two circles touch each other externally at point P. AB is the direct common tangent of these circles. Prove that:
(ii) angles APB = 90°
उत्तर
ii) Now in Δ ATP ,
∴ `∠`TAP = `∠`TPA
Similarly in Δ BTP,`∠`TBP = `∠`TPB
Adding,
`∠`TAP +`∠`TBP =`∠`APB
But
∴ TAP + `∠`TBP + `∠`APB =180°
⇒ `∠`APB = `∠`TAP + `∠`TBP =90°
