Wa tangent segment of length 12 cm to the circle with centre 0 and radius 2 cmpassing through the point P which lies in the exterior of the circle.​

Answer»

Answer:

tangent segment of length √12 cm

RADIUS = 2 cm

Distance of point p from CENTER = √ ((√12)² + 2²)

= √(12 + 4)

= √16

= 4

Cos θ= 2/4 = 1/2

=> θ = 60°

Step 1 : Draw a circle with radius = 2 cm USING COMPASS taking o as center

Step 2 : Draw a Line OP of length = 4 cm

Step 3 : Draw an angle of 60 ° at O on OP and intersect circle at A

Step 4 : Join PA

PA is tangent to circle of length = √12 cm
