Dear Student,
Please find below the solution to the asked query:
We have our diagram , As :
Here we have join PQ .
We know from base angle theorem in a triangle if two sides are equal then their base angles also equal .
In APQ , PA = PQ ( Radius of given circle )
So,
PAQ = PQA = 30 ( As given PAQ = 30 )
From angle sum property in triangle we know sum of all three internal angles of any triangle is 180 , So in APQ
PAQ + PQA + APQ = 180 , Substitute all values we get
30 + 30 + APQ = 180
APQ = 120
And
APQ + RPQ + RPB = 180 ( Linear pair angles )
Substitute all values we get
120 + RPQ + 30 = 180
RPQ = 30 , So
RPQ = RPB = 30 --- ( 1 )
In PQR and PBR
PQ = PB ( Radius of circle )
RPQ = RPB ( From equation 1 )
And
PR = PR ( Common side )
Hence ,
PQR PBR ( By SAS rule )
So,
PQR = PBR ( By CPCT )
And
PBR = 90 ( As we know QR is a tangent at " Q " and we know a line from center to tangent is perpendicular , So PQR = 90 )
Hence ,
BR is a tangent at " B " . ( Hence proved )
Hope this information will clear your doubts about Circles.
