Solution
Steps of construction :
1) Draw a circle with radius
4.2
cm and centre
O
.
2) Draw diameter
A
B
3) With
O
B
as base, draw
∠
B
O
C
=
45
0
4) At
C
, draw a line perpendicular to
O
C
5) At
A
, draw a line perpendicular to
O
A
Both the lines intersect each other at point
P
. So
P
C
and
P
A
tangents.
