2. Two tangents PA and PB are drawn to a circle with Centre O such that <APB = 1200. Prove that OP = 2 AP
3. In fig a circle touches all four sides of a quadrilateral ABCD with AB = 6cm, BC = 7cm and CD = 4cm. Find AD

6. A triangle PQR is drawn to circumscribe a circle of radius 8cm such that the segments QT and TR, into which QR is divided by the
point of contact T, are of length 14cm and 16cm respectively. If area of ∆PQR is 336cm2, find the side PQ and PR.

pair of opposite sides are supplementary.
