Maharashtra Board Solutions for Chapter: Geometric Constructions, Exercise 2: Practice set 4.2

Construct a tangent to a circle with centre $\mathrm{P}$ and radius $3.2\mathrm{cm}$ at any point $\mathrm{M}$ on it.

Draw a circle of radius $2.7\mathrm{cm}.$ Draw a tangent to the circle at any point on it. 

Draw a circle of radius $3.6 \mathrm{cm}.$ Draw a tangent to the circle at any point on it without using the centre.

Draw a circle of radius $3.3 \mathrm{cm}$ Draw a chord $\mathrm{PQ}$ of length $6.6 \mathrm{cm}.$ Draw tangents to the circle at points $\mathrm{P}$ and $\mathrm{Q}$. Write your observation about the tangents.

Draw a circle with radius $3.4\mathrm{cm}.$ Draw a chord MN of length $5.7\mathrm{cm}$ in it. Construct tangents at point $\mathrm{M}$ and $\mathrm{N}$ to the circle.

Draw a circle with centre $\mathrm{P}$ and radius $3.4 \mathrm{cm}.$ Take point $\mathrm{Q}$ at a distance $5.5 \mathrm{cm}$ from the centre. Construct tangents to the circle from point $\mathrm{Q}.$

Draw a circle with radius $4.1\mathrm{cm}.$ Construct tangents to the circle from a point at distance $7.3 \mathrm{cm}$ from the centre.
