Which of the following steps is INCORRECT to construct a circle of radius 2 cm with centre O and then drawing two tangents to the circle from P where P is a point outside the circle such that OP = 4.5 cm.Steps of constructionStep I : Draw a circle with O as centre and radius 2 cm.Step ll : Mark a point P outside the circle such that OP = 2.25 cm.Step III : Join OP = 4.5 cm and bisect it at M.Step IV : Draw a circle with M as centre and radius equal to MP to intersect the given circle at the points T and 7.Step V : Joint PT and PT'. Then, PT and PT' are the required tangents.(A) Step V(C) Step II(B) Step IV(D) None of these

Answer»

The correct option is: (C) Step II

Explanation:

Step II is incorrect. Mark the point P outside the circle such that OP = 4.5 cm is correct.
