Answer:

Following are the steps to draw tangents on the given circle:

Step 1

Draw a circle of 3 cm radius with centre O on the given plane.

Step 2

Draw a circle of 5 cm radius, taking O as its centre. Locate a point P on this circle and join OP.

Step 3

Bisect OP. Let M be the midpoint of PO.

Step 4

Taking M as its centre and MO as its radius, draw a circle. Let it intersect the given circle at points Q and R.

Step 5

Join PQ and PR. PQ and PR are the required tangents.

It can be observed that PQ and PR are of length 4 cm each.

In ΔPQO,

Since PQ is a tangent,

∠PQO = 90°

PO = 5 cm

QO = 3 cm

Applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔPQO, we obtain

PQ² + QO² = PQ²

PQ² + (3)² = (5)²

PQ² + 9 = 25

PQ² = 25 − 9

PQ² = 16

PQ = 4 cm

Hence justified.
