===Interpretation of the problem===
  −
#O is the centre of the circle and tangents AP and AQ are drawn from an external point A.
  −
#OP and OQ are the radii.
  −
#The students have to prove thne angle PAQ=twise the angle OPQ.
  −
===Concepts used.===
  −
#The radii of a circle are equal.
  −
#In any circle the radius drawn at the point of contact is perpendicular to the tangent.
  −
#The tangent drawn from an external point to a circle a] are equal b] subtend equal  angle at the centre c] are equally inclined to the line joining the centre and extrnal point.
  −
#Properties of isoscles triangle.
  −
#Properties of quadrillateral ( sum of all angles) is 360 degrees
  −
#Sum of three angles of triangle is 180 degrees.
