{tex}\angle{/tex}OAP = 90o  ...........(1) [Angle between tangent and radius through the point of contact is 90o ]
{tex}\angle{/tex}OBP = 90o  ...........(2) [Angle between tangent and radius through the point of contact is 90o ]
{tex}\therefore{/tex} OAPB is quadrilateral
 
{tex}\therefore{/tex} {tex}\angle{/tex}APB + {tex}\angle{/tex}AOB + {tex}\angle{/tex}OAP + {tex}\angle{/tex}OBP = 360o [Angle sum property of a quadrilateral]
{tex}\Rightarrow{/tex} {tex}\angle{/tex}APB + {tex}\angle{/tex}AOB + 90o + 90o = 360o [From (1) and (2)]
{tex}\Rightarrow{/tex} {tex}\angle{/tex}APB + {tex}\angle{/tex}AOB = 180o
{tex}\Rightarrow{/tex} {tex}\angle{/tex}APB and {tex}\angle{/tex}AOB are supplementary
