O is the center of circle.AB and AC are tangent drawn from A and BA perpendicular to AC. Prove that BACOis a square.
Given: O is the centre. Now,
∠BAC=90∘
AB=AC(Tangents drawn from a point onto the circle will be equal in length)
OB=OC (radius)
∠ABO=∠ACO=90∘ (radius is perpendicular to the tangent at the point of contact)
OB∥AC (Two lines perpendicular to the same line are parallel to each other).
AB=OC (The distance between two parallel lines in a direction perpendicular to both the lines is constant)
⇒AB=AC=OC=OB
All sides are equal in length
All angles measure 90∘
Hence it is a square.
