Question

Which figure shows a line tangent to the circle?

A circle is shown. A line with length 3 is drawn from the middle point to a point on the circle. A line with length 6 is drawn from that point to a point outside of the circle. Another line with length 9 is drawn from that point to the middle point to form a triangle.

A circle is shown. A line with length 5 is drawn from the middle point to a point on the circle. A line with length 5 is drawn from that point to a point outside of the circle. Another line with length 10 is drawn from that point to the middle point to form a triangle.

Answer 2

Option C : the midpoint of the segment

Explanation:

1.Draw a Circle of any radius.

2.Take a point outside on the circle.

3.Draw a line segment Joining center to the point lying outside.

4.Draw the perpendicular bisector of that line segment.

5.Keep one end of the compass on the midpoint of the line segment, and other end of the compass on the center or other end of line segment,and draw a circle.

6.The points where this circle,cuts the circle drawn in the beginning,are the points,from where you can draw tangents which will intersect at the point which lies outside that we have taken in the beginning.

Option C : the midpoint of the segment
