Draw a cirle with centre P. Draw an are AB of `100^@` measure
Draw tangent to the circle at point A and B

Text Solution

Verified by Experts


Analsis :
`m ("arc AB")=100^@" "...("Given")`
`angleAPB=m("arc AB")" "...("Defnition of measure of minor arc")`
`thereforeangleAPB=100^@`
Central `angleAPB` can be drawn in the circle and thus points A and B can be located on the circle. Tangents at A and B can thus be constructed
