In the figure PA is a tangent and 'O' is the center of the circle. 'P A=17, /_' OPA '=30^circ' then calculate the radius of the circle and distance from centre to the point P.
Triangle OAP is a '30^circ, 60^circ, 90^circ' right triangle.
Using the property of this special right triangle find the radius and the distance OP.
