To solve the problem of drawing two concentric circles of radii 3 cm and 5 cm, and constructing the pair of tangents from a point on the outer circle to the inner circle, follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Draw the Concentric Circles:** - Start by drawing a point O, which will be the center of both circles. - Using a compass, draw a circle with a radius of 3 cm (this is Circle C1). - Without changing the compass width, draw another circle with a radius of 5 cm (this is Circle C2). Both circles should share the same center O. ...
