Om is a common external tangent to circles k and l at poinys o and n, respectively. if jk = 12 and ln =8, find nm to the nearest hundredth by completing the following steps

Value of NM=41

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

JK =12 cm which is the measure of the radius

so,

KO=12 cm also.

And we have given that

LN= 8cm

KL=12+8=20

Let LM be x

Construction : Join KO and LN such that KO║LN.

Now, We can use the BPT (Basic proportionality theorem)

Now, if we consider ΔLMN,

using Pythagorus theorem,

Hence, Value of NM=41
