Solve Question:

Construct tangents to the circle from the point B, having radius 3.2 cm and center ‘A’. point C is at a distance 7.2 cm from the center.

Step 1: Draw a circle with center A and radius 3.2cm


Step 2: Draw a line from A up to C of 7.2 cm



Step 3: Mark point B on circle as point of intersection.


Step 4: Take a measure of more than half of AC using compass and draw 2 circles with A and C as center.


Step 5: Draw a line through intersection of both these circles, it intersects AC at its midpoint



Step 6: Using this midpoint and Center of circle as radius draw a circle to intersect given circle


Step 7: Draw tangents through C to these points of intersection.
