Exercise 11.2

1. Draw a circle of radius 6 cm. From a point 10 cm away from its centre, construct the pair of tangents to the circle and measure their lengths.

Ans:  Steps of constructions:

5. Then PT and PT are two required tangents. Length of PT and PTl is 8.2cm (approx).

2. Construct a tangent to a circle of radius 4 cm from a point on the concentric circle of radius 6cm and measure its length. Also verify the measurement by actual calculation.

Ans: Steps of constructions:

3. Draw a circle of radius 3 cm. Take two points P and Q on one of its extended diameters each at a distance of 7 cm from its centre. Draw tangents to the circle from these two points P and Q.

4. Draw a pair of tangents to a circle of radius 5cm which are inclined to each other an angle of 60°.

Ans: Steps of constructions:

5. Draw a line segment AB of length 8cm. Taking A as centre, draw a circle 

of radius 4cm and taking B as centre, draw another circle of radius of 3cm. Construct tangents to each circle from the centre of other circle.

6. Let ABC be a right triangle in which AB = 6 cm. BC = 8 cm and ∠B = 90°. BD is the perpendicular from B on AC. The circle though B, C, D is drawn. Construct the tangents from A to this circle.

Ans: Steps of construction:

1. Construct a right angled triangle ABC according to given conditions and measurements.

2. Draw BD⟂AC.

3. Take midpoint of side BC take it as ‘M’.

4. Take ‘M’ as centre and BC as diameter, draw a circle through B, C, D during property, angle in semicircle is 90°. (∠BDC = 90°) Take this circle as I.

5. Now join ‘A’ and ‘M’.

6. Draw perpendicular bisector of ‘N’. Now with ‘N’ as centre and ‘NA’

or ‘NM’ as radius, draw a circle (II) which intersects the circle (I) at ‘B’ and ‘P’.

7. Join AP.

8. AP and AB are the required tangents.

7. Draw a circle with the help of a bangle. Take a point outside the circle. Construct the pair of tangents from this point to the circle.

Ans: Steps of construction:

1. Draw a circle using bangle (I).

2. Take any two chords AB and CD (non parallel) on circle.

3. Draw the perpendicular bisectors of chords AB and CD. The perpendicular bisectors intersect each other at ‘O’.

∴ OA = OB and OC = OD

∴ OA = OB = OC = OD (radii of circle)

∴ ‘O’ is the centre of circle.

4. Take any point ‘P’ outside the circle.

5. Join OP.

6. Draw the perpendicular bisector of OP. Let ‘M’ the mid point of OP.
