Question
A pair of tangents can be constructed to a circle inclined at an angle of 170°.
Options
True
False
Solution
This statement is True.
Explanation:
Since, the angle between the pair of tangents is always greater than 0 but less than 180°.
Hence, we can draw a pair of tangents to a circle inclined at an angle at 170°.
