Solution

Steps of construction:
1) Draw a circle of radius 3.5cm with centre O.
2) Extending the diameter from both the sides such that it meets P and Q in a way that OP=OQ=7cm.
3) Draw tangents from P and Q such that the tangents meet the circle on either sides at A and B.
4) We will find that PA II BQ
