Puja has drawn a circle wit centre of O ...

Puja has drawn a circle wit centre of O of which AB is a diameter. Two parallel tangents drawn at A and B, two end-points of the diameter AB, is a diameter. Two parallel tangents drawn at A and B, two end-points of the diameter AB, intersects another tangent to the circle at another point T at the points P and Q. Prove that `angle POQ=90^(@).`
