EXAMPLE 4 Verify a tangent to a circle In the diagram, PT is a

EXAMPLE 4 Verify a tangent to a circle In the diagram, PT is a radius of tangent to P ? P. Is ST SOLUTION Use the Converse of the Pythagorean Theorem. Because 122 + 352 = 372, PST is a right triangle and ST PT. So, ST is perpendicular to a radius of P at its endpoint on P. By Theorem 10. 1, ST is tangent to P.
