Mark the points of intersection as 'D' and 'E'
|-
||Select "Segment between two points" tool>>Join 'B' and 'D' >>join B' and 'E'
||Select "Segment between two points" tool

Join points 'B' and 'D'.
'B' and 'E' .
|-
||Point to the circle 'c'
||Can you see that the Segements 'BD' and 'BE' are tangents to the circle 'c'?
|-
||
||Now, let's explore some of the properties of these Tangents to the circle
|-
||Click "Segment between two points" tool>> join 'AD'>>join 'AE'
||Select "Segment between two points" tool

join points 'A', 'D' and 'A', 'E'
Segment 'AD'=Segment 'AE' (radii of circle 'c').
|-
||outline the triangles 'ABD' and 'ABE'.

Point to Segments 'AD' and 'AE'

||In triangles 'ABD' and 'ABE'

Segment 'AD'= segment 'AE'

Let's check from Algebra view
|-
||Point to angles 'ADB' and 'BEA'

Outine the semicircle 'd'.
||'∠ADB'= '∠BEA' = '90°' (angle of the semicircle of circle 'd')

Lets check with "Angle" tool
|-
||Click "Angle" tool>>click on points >> ADB and BEA
||Click on the "Angle" tool...
Click on the points 'A', 'D', 'B'
and 'B', 'E', 'A'
|-
||Point to segment 'AB'

Outline the two triangles
||Segment 'AB' is common side for both the triangles

therefore '△ABD' '≅' '△ABE' by "SAS rule of conguency"
|-
||Point to tangents 'BD' and 'BE'
||It implies that Tangents 'BD' and 'BE' are equal!
|-
||point to the Algebra view
||From the Algebra view,
we can find that the tangents 'BD' and 'BE' are equal
|-
||Point to the Angle,Radius, Tangent
||Please Notice
A tangent is always at right angles to the radius of the circle where it touches

Theorem

||"Angle between tangent and chord at the point of tangency, is same as an inscribed angle subtended by the same chord".
|-
||

Two Tangents are drawn to the circle.
|-
||Point to 'E' and 'F'

Click on "Intersect two objects" tool>>Mark points of intersection
||The tangents intersect at two points on the circle.

Mark points of intersection as 'E' and 'F'.
|-
||Click on "Polygon" tool>>Click on point B>> point C>>point F>>point B again to complete the figure
||Let's draw a triangle.

Click on the points 'B' 'C' 'F' and 'B' once again to complete the figure
|-
||Point to the segment 'BF'
||In the figure segment 'BF' is the chord to the circle 'c'
|-
||Point to '∠FCB' and the chord
||'∠FCB' is the inscribed angle by the chord to the circle 'c'
|-
||Point '∠DFB' and tangent
||'∠DFB' is angle subtended by the tangent.and chord to the circle
|-
||Click on "Angle" tool >> Point 'F' 'C' 'B' >> ' point D' 'F' 'B'

Click on "Angle" tool
click on the points
'F' 'C' 'B'
and 'D' 'F' 'B'
|-
||Show the angles
||Notice that '∠FCB' = '∠DFB'

||Let us save this file now
Click on “File”>> "Save As"

I will type the file name as "Tangent-angle"
Click on "Save"

With this we come to the end of this tutorial.
|-
||Summary
||Let's summarize
In this tutorial, we have learnt to verify that

"Two tangents drawn from an external point are equal"

"Angle between a tangent and radius of a circle is 90^0"

"Angle between tangent and a chord is equal to inscribed angle subtended by the chord "
|-
||Assignment
||As an assignment I would like you to verify:

"Angle between tangents drawn from an external point to a circle, is supplementary to the angle subtended by the line-segment joining the points of contact at the centre".

To verify the theorem

Draw a circle

Draw tangents from an external point

Mark points of intersection of the tangents

Join center of circle to intersection points

Measure angle at the center, and

Measure angle between the tangents

What is the sum of the two angles?

Join center and external point

Does the line-segment bisect angle at the center?

Hint - Use Angle Bisector tool
|-
||Show the output of the Assignment
||The output of the assignment should look like this
Sum of the angles =180^0.
The line bisects the angle
