In the figure,the pair of tangents $AP$ and $AQ$ drawn from an external point $A$ to a circle with centre $O$ are perpendicular to each other and the length of each tangent is $5 \, cm$. Then the radius of the circle is (in $cm$):

$A$ tangent from $P$,a point in the exterior of a circle,touches the circle at $Q$. If $OP = 29$ and $PQ = 20$,then the diameter of the circle is:
