Question

Question 3
The length of tangents from an external point P on a circle with centre O is always less than OP.

Answer 1

True

PT is a tangents drawn from external point P . Join OT
$\therefore OT\perp PT$
So, OPT is a right angled triangle formed
In right angled triangle, hypotenuse is always greater than any of the two sides of the triangle.
$\therefore$ OP > PT
Or PT < OP
