Ask your Maths Problem .Dont feel shy even to ask simple questions of any grade..post your question in comment box below

Q) Two tangents pq and qr are drawn from an external point to a circle with centre 'o'.balu said the quadrilateral ORP is a circle do you agree ? Give reason? sol) what is cyclic quadrilateral?           A ) The sum of either pairs( /_A  + /_C = 180 deg     or /_B + /_D 180 deg ) of opposite angles of cyclic quadrilateral is 180 degrees Given :- PQ and PR are  two tangents drawn at points " Q " and " R " from an external point " P " with center " O " Required to prove( RTP ) :- QORP is a cyclic Quadrilateral Proof :- OR _|_ PR and OQ _|_ PQ [ tangent at a point on the circle is perpendicular to the radius through point of contact ] ∠ ORP = 90° ∠ OQP = 90° ∠ ORP +   ∠ OQP = 180° Hence balu said correct QOPR is a cyclic quadrilateral.  As the sum of the opposite pairs of angle is 180 ° ******************************************************************************************* ...
