In Fig. 3, from an external point P, two tangents PT acircle with centre O and radius r. If OP 2r, show tnd PS are drawn to aat ZOTS OST-30°2.8耳0 |

Answer» AP is the tangent to the circleOA _|_ AP (Radius is perpendicular to the tangent at the point of contact)∠OAP = 90 degreesIn angle OAP,Sin∠OPA= OA/OP = R/2R = 1/2∠OPA = 30In Angle ABP,AP = BP∠PAB =∠PBAso 60+∠PAB +∠PBA = 18060+2∠PAB = 180∠PAB = 180 - 60/2∠PAB = 60Butas∠OAP = OBP = 90OAP = OBPso,60 + x = 90x = 30therefore,∠OTS = OST= 30 |
