Sample Questions

1multiple correct

Which of the following tools are required for constructing tangents to a circle from an external point?

Show answer

Compass, Ruler

Only compass and ruler are needed for basic geometric constructions. The compass is used to draw circles and arcs, while the ruler is used to draw straight lines and measure distances.

2multiple correct

Which circles are involved in constructing tangents from an external point?

Show answer

Given circle with center O, Auxiliary circle with center M

Two circles are involved: the original given circle with center O, and the auxiliary circle with center at midpoint M of PO. These two circles intersect at points which help locate the tangent points.

3multiple choice

How many tangents can be drawn to a circle from a point lying on the circle?

Show answer

1

From a point on the circle, exactly one tangent can be drawn. This tangent is perpendicular to the radius at that point.

4multiple choice

The auxiliary circle intersects the given circle at how many points?

Show answer

2

The auxiliary circle intersects the given circle at exactly 2 points. These intersection points are the points of tangency for the two tangents from the external point.
