PRS = 180 120 = 60
Let the circle touch the sides AB, BC, CD and DA at the points P, Q, R, and S
respectively. Join OP, OQ, OR and OS. Join OA, OB, OC and OD since the two
tangents drawn from an external point subtend equal angles at the centre
1 = 2, 3 = 4, 5 = 6, 7 = 8

Again AP, AQ are tangents to the circle from the point A
AP = AQ
Similarly BR = BQ
CR = CS
DP = DS
( AP + DP ) + ( BR + CR ) = AQ + DS + BQ + CS = ( AQ + BQ ) + ( CS + DS )

Tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal in length

AF = AE [Tangents from A](i)
BF = BD [Tangents from B](ii)
