Question

A backyard is in the shape of a triangle ABC with right angle at B. AB = 7 m and BC = 15 m. A circular pit was dug inside it such that it touches the walls AC, BC and AB at P, Q and R respectively such that AP = x m.

In the adjoining figure, PA and PB are tangents to a circle with centre O such that ∠P = 90°. If AB = 3√2 cm, then the diameter of the circle is

For a circle with centre O and radius 5 cm, which of the following statements is true ? P : Distance between every pair of parallel tangents is 5 cm. Q : Distance between every pair of parallel tangents is 10 cm. R : Distance between every pair of parallel tangents must be between 5 cm and 10 cm. S : There does not exist a point outside the circle from where length of tangent is 5 cm.

In the adjoining figure, TS is a tangent to a circle with centre O. The value of 2x° is
