8cm
13cm
10cm
13cm

Correct Answer: A

Explanation:

Steps of Construction:
1. Take a point O and draw a circle of radius 6 cm [ i.e. diameter 12 cm]
2. Mark a point P at a distance of 10 cm from O in any direction. Join OP
3. Draw right bisector of OP, intersecting OP at O'
4. Taking O' as center and O'O=O'P as radius, draw a circle to intersect the previous circle at T and T'.
5. Join PT and PT', which are required tangents.
6. Measured PT and PT' by a ruler and we get PT = PT' = 8 cm
