Question
Construct a tangent to a circle with centre P and radius 3.2 cm at any point M on it.
Solution
Steps of Construction:
Step 1: Draw a circle with centre P and radius 3.2 cm.
Step 2: Take any point M on the circle.
Step 3: Draw ray PM.
Step 4: Draw line l perpendicular to ray PX through point M.
Here, line l is the required tangent to the circle at the point M.
