P and Q are points on the circle with centre O.
TP and TQ are tangents to the circle from the point T.
Complete the following statements and reasons.
In triangles OPT and OQT
O P= ...... because each is a radius of the circle
OT is a common side

Angle O P T= angle ...... =90^ because ......
Triangles OPT and OQT are congruent using the criterion ......
