Draw a circle of diameter 9 cm. Mark a point at a distance of 7.5 cm from the centre of the circle. Draw tangents to the given circle from this exterior point. Measure the length of each tangent.
उत्तर
Steps of construction:
- Draw a circle of diameter 9 cm, taking O as the centre.
- Mark a point P outside the circle, such that PO = 7.5 cm.
- Taking OP as the diameter, draw a circle such that it cuts the earlier circle at A and B.
- Join PA and PB.
