AI Generated Solution

To prove that the tangents drawn at the endpoints of a chord of a circle make equal angles with the chord, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Draw the Circle and Chord - Draw a circle with center O. Let A and B be the endpoints of a chord of the circle. ### Step 2: Draw Tangents - From an external point P, draw tangents PA and PB to the circle, touching the circle at points A and B respectively. ...
