The Question : Draw a pair of tangents to a circle of radius 6cm which are inclined to each other at an angle of 60°. Also find the length of the tangent.
Solution for the question :
Solution:Draw a circle of radius 6cmDraw OA and Construct ∠AOB = 120°Draw ∠OAP = ∠OBP = 90°PA and PB are required tangentsJoin OP and apply tan∠APO = tan 30° =6/PA⇒ Length of tangent = 6√3 cm
