Draw a circle with centre O and radius 4cm. Draw any diameter AB of this circle. Construct tangents to the circle at each of the two end points of the diameter AB.
✓
Answer
Steps of Construction:
-
Draw a circle with centre O and radius 4cm.
-
Draw any diameter AB.
-
Draw line $\text{L}\perp\text{OA}$ such that $\angle\text{OAL}=90^\circ.$
-
Draw line $\text{M}\perp\text{OB}$ such that $\angle\text{OBM}=90^\circ.$
Thus, LA and LB are the required tangent.
