Question:1

If radii of two concentric circles are 4 cm and 5 cm, then the length of each chord of one circle which is tangent to the other circle is
(A) 3 cm (B) 6 cm (C) 9 cm (D) 1 cm

Answer: (B) 6 cm

Solution
According to question

Here A is the center and AB = 4 cm radius of small circle and AD = 5 cm radius of large circle.
We have to find the length of CD
\DeltaABD is a right angle triangle.
Hence use Pythagoras theorem in \DeltaABD
\left ( AD \right )^{2}= \left ( AB \right )^{2}+\left ( BD \right )^{2}
\left ( 5 \right )^{2}= \left ( 4 \right )^{2}+\left ( BD \right )^{2}
25-16= \left ( BD \right )^{2}
BD= \sqrt{9}= 3
BD= 3cm
CD= CB+BD
CD= CB+BD
CD= BD+BD= 2BD\; \; \left ( \because CB= BD \right )
CD= 2\times 3= 6cm
CD= 6cm
Hence length of chord is 6 cm.

Question:2

In Figure, if ∠AOB = 125°, then ∠COD is equal to

(A) 62.5° (B) 45° (C) 35° (D) 55°

Answer: (D)
Solution

Given : ∠AOB = 125°
Let ∠COD = x°
As we know that the sum of opposite sides angles of a quadrilateral circumscribing a circle is equal to 180°.
Hence
∠AOB + ∠COD = 180°
125° + ∠COD = 180°
x° = 180° – 125° (\mathbb{Q} ∠COD = x°)
x° = 55°
Hence, ∠COD = 55°

Question:3

In Figure, AB is a chord of the circle and AOC is its diameter such that < ACB = 50°. If AT is the tangent to the circle at the point A, then \angle BAT is equal to

(A) 65° (B) 60° (C) 50° (D) 40°

Answer: (C)
Solution

Given \angle ACB = 50°.
We know that the angle subtended by a diameter is right.
Hence \angleB = 90°
We know that sum of interior angle of a triangle is 180°.
In \bigtriangleupABC
\angle A+\angle B+\angle C= 180^{\circ}
\angle A+90^{\circ}+50^{\circ}= 180^{\circ}
\angle A=180^{\circ}-140^{\circ}
\angle A= 40^{\circ}
That is \angle CAB= 40^{\circ}
\angle CAT= \angle CAB+\angle BAT
90^{\circ}= 40^{\circ}+\angle BAT \left (\because CA \perp AT \right )
\angle BAT= 90^{\circ}-40^{\circ}
\angle BAT= 50^{\circ}

Question:4

From a point P which is at a distance of 13 cm from the centre O of a circle of radius 5 cm, the pair of tangents PQ and PR to the circle are drawn. Then the area of the quadrilateral PQOR is
(A) 60 cm2 (B) 65 cm2 (C) 30 cm2 (D) 32.5 cm2

Answer:

(A) 60 cm2
Solution
According to question

Given OP = 13 cm
OQ = OR = radius = 5 cm
In \bigtriangleupPOQ, \angle Q= 90^{\circ} (\because PQ is tangent)
Using Pythagoras theorem in \bigtriangleupPOQ
\left ( PO \right )^{2}= \left ( PQ \right )^{2}+\left ( QO \right )^{2} ( because H2 = B2 + P2)
\left ( 13 \right )^{2}= \left ( PQ \right )^{2}+\left ( 5 \right )^{2}
\left ( PQ\right )^{2}= 169-25
PQ= \sqrt{144}= 12
PQ= 12
Area of \bigtriangleupPOQ = \frac{1}{2} × perpendicular × base
= \frac{1}{2}\times PQ\times OQ
= \frac{1}{2}\times 12\times 5= 30cm^{2}
Area of quadrilateral = 2 × area of \bigtriangleupPOQ
= 2 × 30 = 60 cm2

Question:5

At one end A of a diameter AB of a circle of radius 5 cm, tangent XAY is drawn to the circle. The length of the chord CD parallel to XY and at a distance 8 cm from A is
(A) 4 cm (B) 5 cm (C) 6 cm (D) 8 cm

Answer:

(D) 8 cm
Solution
According to questions

Given AO = OB = 5 cm
Distance between XY and CD = 8 cm
Since D is the center of the circle and CD is chord. If we join OD it become the radius of circle that is OD = 5cm
AZ = 8 cm (given)
AZ = AO + OZ
8 = 5 + OZ
OZ = 3cm
In \bigtriangleupODZ, use Pythagoras theorem
\left ( OD \right )^{2}= \left ( OZ \right )^{2}+\left ( ZD \right )^{2}
\left ( 5 \right )^{2}= \left ( 3 \right )^{2}+\left ( ZD \right )^{2}
\left ( ZD \right )^{2}= 25-9
ZD= \sqrt{16}= 4cm
CD= CZ+ZD
CD= ZD+ZD \left ( \because CZ= ZD \right )
CD= 2ZD= 2\left ( 4 \right )= 8cm
Length of chord CD = 8 cm

Question:6

In Figure, AT is a tangent to the circle with centre O such that OT = 4 cm and ∠OTA = 30°. Then AT is equal to

(A) 4 cm (B) 2 cm (C) 2\sqrt{3}cm (D) 4\sqrt{3}cm

Answer: (C)2\sqrt{3}cm

Solution

Given ∠OTA = 30° , OT = 4cm
Join OA, since AT is tangent.
Hence it is perpendicular to OA
In \bigtriangleupOAT
\cos \theta = \frac{B}{H}
\cos 30^{\circ} = \frac{AT}{OT}
\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}= \frac{AT}{4}\; \; \left ( \because \cos 30^{\circ}= \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \right )
AT= 4\times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}
AT= 2\sqrt{3}cm


Question:7

In Figure, if O is the centre of a circle, PQ is a chord and the tangent PR at P makes an angle of 50° with PQ, then ∠POQ is equal to


(A) 100° (B) 80° (C) 90° (D) 75°

Answer: (A)100^{\circ}

Solution
Given :\angle QPR= 50^{\circ}
We know that tangent is perpendicular to radius.
Hence PR\perp PO
\angleOPR = 90^{\circ}
\angleOPR = \angleOPQ + \angleQPR
90^{\circ} = \angle OPQ + 50^{\circ}
\angleOPQ = 40^{\circ}
\angleOPQ = \angleOQD \left ( \because \, OP= OQ \, radius\, of\, circle\right )
Hence , \angleOPQ = 40^{\circ}
We know that the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180^{\circ}
In \bigtriangleup OPQ
\angleO+\angleQ +\angleP = 180^{\circ}
\angleO +40+40 = 180
\angleo = 100^{\circ}
Hence \angleOPQ = 100^{\circ}

Question:8

In Figure, if PA and PB are tangents to the circle with centre O such that \angleAPB = 50°, then \angleOAB is equal to

(A) 25° (B) 30° (C) 40° (D) 50°

Answer: (A) 25°

Solution
Given : \angleAPB = 50°
We know that length of tangents drawn from an external point is equal
Hence, PA = PB
Since, PA = PB
Let \anglePAB = \angle PBA = x0
In \bigtriangleupPAB
\anglep+\angleA+\angleB = 180^{\circ}(\because Sum of interior angles of a tangent is 180^{\circ})
50^{\circ}+x^{\circ}+x^{\circ}= 180^{\circ}
2x^{\circ}= 130^{\circ}
x^{\circ}= 65^{\circ}

\anglePAB = \anglePBA = 65^{\circ}
\anglePAO = 90^{\circ} (\mathbb{Q} tangent is perpendicular to radius)
\anglePAO = \anglePAB +\angleOAB
90^{\circ}= 65^{\circ}+\angle OAB
\angle OAB= 90^{\circ}-65^{\circ}
\angle OAB= 25^{\circ}

Question:9

If two tangents inclined at an angle 60° are drawn to a circle of radius 3 cm,then length of each tangent is equal to
(A) \frac{3}{2}\sqrt{3}cm (B) 6 cm (C) 3 cm (D) 3\sqrt{3}cm

Answer:

(D) 3\sqrt{3}cm
Solution
According to question

Given OQ = OR = 3 cm (Radius)
\angle P= 60^{\circ}
Draw line OP which bisect \angle P . That is \angle OPQ= 30^{\circ}
\angle OPR= 30^{\circ}
In \bigtriangleup OPQ
\tan \theta = \frac{P}{B}
\tan 30^{\circ} = \frac{3}{PQ}
\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}= \frac{3}{PQ}
PQ= 3\sqrt{3}
Here PQ = PR
Hence , PQ = PR= 3\sqrt{3}

Question:10

In Figure, if PQR is the tangent to a circle at Q whose centre is O, AB is a chord parallel to PR and\angle BQR = 70°,then \angle AQB is equal to

( A) 20° (B) 40° (C) 35° (D) 45°

Answer:

Answer(B)40^{\circ}
Solution
Given :\angle BQR= 70^{\circ}, AB\parallel PR
Since DQ perpendicular to PR
\angle DQR= 90^{\circ}
\angle DQR= \angle DQB+\angle BQR
90^{\circ}= \angle DQB+70^{\circ}
\angle DQB= 20^{\circ}
Since DQ bisect \angle AQB
Hence , \angle DQB=\angle DQA= 20^{\circ}
\angle AQB= \angle DQB+\angle DQA
= 20^{\circ}+20^{\circ}= 40^{\circ}
\angle AQB= 40^{\circ}

Question:1

Write ‘True’ or ‘False’ and justify your answer in each of the following :
If a chord AB subtends an angle of 60^{\circ} at the centre of a circle, then angle between the tangents at A and B is also 60^{\circ}.

Answer:False

Solution

Here CA and CB are the two tangents which is drawn on chord AB and also we know that tangent and radius are perpendicular to each other.
i.e.,\angle CBO=\angle CAO= 90^{\circ}
In quadrilateral, ABCD
\angle A+\angle B+\angle C+\angle O= 360^{\circ}
[\mathbb{Q}Sum of interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360^{\circ}]
90^{\circ}+90^{\circ}+\angle C+60^{\circ}= 360^{\circ}
\angle C= 360^{\circ}-60^{\circ}-90^{\circ}-90^{\circ}
\angle C= 120^{\circ}

Here we conclude that angle between the tangents at A and B is 120^{\circ}.
Therefore the given statement is False.

Question:2

Write ‘True’ or ‘False’ and justify your answer in each of the following :The length of tangent from an external point on a circle is always greater than the radius of the circle.

Answer:

False
Solution
Case-I – When external point P is very close to circle

Here C is the center of circle. Let this radius is 5 and distance of Px and Py is 3.Or we can say that Case-I contradict the given statement.
Case-II – When external point P is far the circle.

Here radius of the given circle is 5 cm and let the length of Px and Py is 10 cm.
Hence according to Case-II and given statement is True.
Hence from the above two cases we conclude that the tangent’s length is depend on the distance of external point from the circle.
Therefore given statement is False because length of tangent from an external point of a circle may or may not be greater than the radius of the circle.
Therefore the given statement is False.

Question:3

Write ‘True’ or ‘False’ and justify your answer in each of the following :The length of tangent from an external point P on a circle with centre O is always less than OP.

Answer:

True
Solution


Here O is the center of given circle and PA is tangent which is drawn from an external point P. OA is radius of circle.We know that tangent and radius is always perpendicular to each other.
\therefore \, \angle A= 90^{\circ}
\therefore \bigtriangleup PAO is a right angle triangle Use Pythagoras theorem in \bigtriangleup PAO
\left ( PO \right )^{2}= \left ( OA \right )^{2}+\left ( PA \right )^{2} …..(i)
From equation (i) we can say that PA is always less than PO.
In other words we can say that the length of hypotenuse is always greater than the length of perpendicular in a right angle triangle.
i.e., OP > PA
Hence the given statement is True.

Question:4

Write ‘True’ or ‘False’ and justify your answer in each of the following :The angle between two tangents to a circle may be 0^{\circ}.

Answer:

True
Solution
It is possible that the angles of two line may be 0^{\circ} in only two conditions.
1. When lines are parallel
2.When both the lines are coincide.
Hence the given statement is True
This may be possible only when tangents are parallel or when both the tangents are coincide.

Question:5

Write ‘True’ or ‘False’ and justify your answer in each of the following :If angle between two tangents drawn from a point P to a circle of radius a and centre O is 90^{\circ}, then OP= a\sqrt{2}

Answer:

True
Solution

Given \angle APB= 90^{\circ}
Draw line OP from point O to P which bisect \angle P .
i.e , \angle OPB= 45^{\circ}
In \bigtriangleup OBP
\sin 45= \frac{OB}{OP}
\therefore \sin \theta = \frac{perpendicular}{hypotenuse}


\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}= \frac{a}{OP}
OP= a\sqrt{2}

Hence the given statement is True.

Question:6

Write ‘True’ or ‘False’ and justify your answer in each of the following :If angle between two tangents drawn from a point P to a circle of radius a and centre O is 60^{\circ}, then OP= a\sqrt{3}

Answer:

False
Solution

Given \angle APB= 60^{\circ}
Draw line OP from point O to P which bisect P. Which bisect \angle P
i.e, \angle APO= 30^{\circ}
In \bigtriangleup OAP
\sin 30^{\circ}= \frac{OA}{OP}
\therefore \sin \theta = \frac{perpendicular}{hypotenuse}

\frac{1}{2}= \frac{a}{OP}
OP = 2a
Hence the value of OP = 2a
Hence the given statement is False.

Question:7

Write ‘True’ or ‘False’ and justify your answer in each of the following :The tangent to the circumcircle of an isosceles triangle ABC at A, in which AB = AC, is parallel to BC.

Answer:

Answer: true
Solution

Given ABC is a isosceles triangle and AB = AC.
To Prove : XY\parallel BC
Proof : AB = AC (Given)
\angle ABC= \angle ACB
[ angle between chord of a circle and tangent is equal to angle made by chord in alternate segment]
Also \angle XAB= \angle ABC
\Rightarrow \angle XAB= \angle BCA
\Rightarrow XAY\parallel BC
i.e , \Rightarrow XY\parallel BC
Hence true

Question:8

Write ‘True’ or ‘False’ and justify your answer in each of the following
If a number of circles touch a given line segment PQ at a point A, then their centres lie on the perpendicular bisector of PQ.

Answer:

False
Solution
According to question.

Here C1, C2, C3 are the circle with center O1, O2, O3 respectively.
C1, C2, C3 touches line PQ at point A. Here PQ is the tangent at each circle.
If we join O1, O2, O3 to point A then the line is perpendicular to line PQ because if we draw a line from the center of circle at any point then the tangent at that point is perpendicular to the radius.
But here line joining the centers is not bisecting the line PQ because it depend on the length of PQ.
Hence the given statement is False.

Question:9

Write ‘True’ or ‘False’ and justify your answer in each of the following
If a number of circles pass through the end points P and Q of a line segment
PQ, then their centres lie on the perpendicular bisector of PQ.

Answer:

True
Solution
According to question.

Here C1, C2 circles pass through the point P and Q.
We know that the perpendicular bisector of chord of a circle is always passes through the center of the circle. Hence the perpendicular bisector of line PQ passes through the center of circles of C1, C2.
Hence the given statement is True.

Question:10

Write ‘True’ or ‘False’ and justify your answer in each of the following
AB is a diameter of a circle and AC is its chord such that \angleBAC = 30°. If the tangent at C intersects AB extended at D, then BC = BD.

Answer:

True
Solution: First of all we solve the question according to give conditions. If we able to prove it then it will be true otherwise it will be false.
Given :\angleBAC = 30^{\circ}
Diagram : Construct figure according to given conditions then join BC and OC.

To Prove : BC = BD
Proof :\angleBAC = 30^{\circ} (Given)
\Rightarrow \, \angle BCD= 30^{\circ}
[\because angle between chord and tangent id equal to the angle made by chord in alternate segment]
\angle OCD= 90^{\circ}
[\because Radius and tangent’s angle is always 90^{\circ}]
In \bigtriangleupOAC
OA = OC (both are radius of circle)
\angle OCA= 30^{\circ}
\Rightarrow \angle OCA= 30^{\circ} [opposite angles of an isosceles triangle is equal]
\therefore \; \; \angle ACD= \angle ACO+\angle OCD
= 30+90= 120^{\circ}
In \bigtriangleup ACD
\angle CAD+\angle ADC+\angle DCA= 180^{\circ}
[\because sum of interior angle of a trianglE 180^{\circ}]
30^{\circ}+\angle ADC+120^{\circ}= 180^{\circ}
\angle ADC= 180^{\circ}-120^{\circ}-30^{\circ}
< ADC=30^{\circ}
In \bigtriangleupBCD we conclude that
\angle BCD= 30^{\circ} and\angle ADC=30^{\circ}
\Rightarrow BC= BD[\becausesides which is opposite to equal angles is always equal]
Hence Proved.
Hence the given statement is true.

Question:1

Out of the two concentric circles, the radius of the outer circle is 5 cm and the chord AC of length 8 cm is a tangent to the inner circle. Find the radius of the inner circle.

Answer:

Radius = 3 cm
Solution
According to question

Given : AC = 8 CM
OC = 5 CM
AC = AB+BC
8 = BC+BC (\because AB =BC)
BC = 4CM
In \bigtriangleup OBC using Pythagoras theorem
H^{2}+B^{2}+P^{2}
\left ( OC \right )^{2}= \left ( BC \right )^{2}+\left ( OB \right )^{2}
\left ( 5 \right )^{2}= \left ( 4 \right )^{2}+\left ( OB \right )^{2}
\left ( OB \right )^{2}= 25-16
OB= \sqrt{9}= 3cm
Hence radius of inner circle is 3 cm.

Question:2

Two tangents PQ and PR are drawn from an external point to a circle with centre O. Prove that QORP is a cyclic quadrilateral.

Answer:

Solution
According to question

To Prove : QORP is a cyclic quadrilateral.
OQ \perp PQ, OR \perp PR (\because PQ, PR are tangents)
Hence, \angle OQP+\angle ORP= 180^{\circ}\cdots (i)
We know that sum of interior angles of quadrilateral is 360^{\circ}
\angle OPQ+\angle OPR+\angle ORP+\angle ROQ= 360^{\circ} [Given (i)]
180^{\circ}+\angle QPR+\angle ROQ= 360^{\circ}
\angle QPR+\angle ROQ= 180^{\circ}
Here we found that sum of opposite angles of quadrilateral is 180^{\circ}
Hence QORP is a cyclic quadrilateral.
Hence proved

Question:3

If from an external point B of a circle with centre O, two tangents BC andBD are drawn such that <DBC = 120^{\circ}, prove that BC + BD = BO, i.e., BO = 2BC.

Answer:

Solution
According to question

Given : \angle DBC= 120^{\circ}
To Prove : BC + BD = BO, i.e., BO = 2BC
Here OC \perp BC, OD \perp BD (\because BC, BD are tangents)
Join OB which bisect \angle DBC
In \bigtriangleup ODB
\cos \theta = \frac{B}{H}
\cos 60^{\circ}= \frac{BD}{OB}
\frac{1}{2}= \frac{BD}{OB}
OB= 2BD
OB= 2BC \left ( \because BD= BC \, \ \ Tangents \right )
OB= BC+BC
OB= BC+BD\; \; \left ( \because BC= BD \right )
Hence Proved

Question:4

Prove that the centre of a circle touching two intersecting lines lies on the angle bisector of the lines.

Answer:

Solution

Here PQ and PR are tangents and O is the center of circle.
Let us join OQ and OR.
Here \angle OQP= \angle ORP= 90^{\circ}
(\because tangent from exterior point is perpendicular to the radius through the point of contact)
In \bigtriangleupPQO and\bigtriangleupPRO
OQ= OR (Radius of circle)
OP= OP (Common side)
Hence, \bigtriangleup PQO\cong \bigtriangleup PRO [RHS interior]
Hence, \angle RPO= \angle QPO [By CPCT]
Hence O lie on angle bisector of \angle QPR
Hence Proved.

Question:5

In Figure, AB and CD are common tangents to two circles of unequal radii. Prove that AB = CD.

Answer:

Solution
To Prove : AB = CD
Extend AB and CD then they meet at point E.

Here EA = EC (\because length of tangent drawn from same point is equal)
Also EB = ED (\because length of tangent drawn from some point is equal)
AB = AE - BE
CD = CE -DF
From equal axiom if equal are subtracted from equal then the result is equal.
\therefore AB= CD
Hence Proved

Question:6

In Figure, AB and CD are common tangents to two circles of unequal radii.

In above question, if radii of the two circles are equal, prove that AB = CD.

Answer:

Solution
To Prove AB = CD
According to question

It is given that radius of both circles are equal
Hence, OA = OC = PB = PD
Here, \angle A= \angle B= \angle C= \angle D= 90^{\circ}
(\because tangent at any point is perpendicular to the radius at the point of contact)
Hence ABCD is a rectangle.
Opposite side of a rectangle are equal
\therefore AB= CD
Hence Proved.

Question:7

In Figure, common tangents AB and CD to two circles intersect at E. Prove that AB = CD.

Answer:

Solution
To Prove : AB = CD
We know that the length of tangents drawn from some point to a circle is equal.
So, EB = ED
AE = CE
Here AB = AE + EB
CD = CE + ED
From Euclid axiom is equals are added in equals then the result is also equal.
\therefore AB = CD
Hence Proved

Question:8

A chord PQ of a circle is parallel to the tangent drawn at a point R of the circle. Prove that R bisects the arc PRQ.

Answer:

Solution
According to question

To Prove : R bisects the arc PRQ
Here \angle Q_{3}= \angle Q_{1} …..(i) (\because Alternate interior angles)
We know that angle between tangent and chord is equal to angle made by chord in alternate segment.
\therefore \angle Q_{3}= \angle Q_{2} …..(ii)
From equation (i) and (ii)
\angle Q_{1}= \angle Q_{2}
We know that sides opposite to equal angles and equal.
\therefore PR = QR
Hence R bisects the arc PRQ
Hence Proved

Question:9

Prove that the tangents drawn at the ends of a chord of a circle make equal angles with the chord.

Answer:

Solution
According to question

To Prove :\angle Q_{1}= \angle Q_{2}
X1, Y1, X2, Y2 are tangents at point A and B respectively.
Take a point C and join AC and AB.
Now \angle Q_{1}= \angle C …..(i) (Angle in alternate segment)
Similarly,
\angle Q_{2}= \angle C …..(ii)
From equation (i) and (ii)
\angle Q_{1}= \angle Q_{2}= \angle C …..(iii)
From equation (3)
\angle Q_{1}= \angle Q_{2}
Hence Proved

Question:10

Prove that a diameter AB of a circle bisects all those chords which are parallel to the tangent at the point A.

Answer:

Solution
According to question

Let us take a chord EF || XY
Here \angle XAO= 90^{\circ}
(\because tangent at any point of the circle is perpendicular to the radius through the point of contact)
\angle EGO= \angle XAO (Corresponding angles)
\therefore \, \angle EGO= 90^{\circ}
Thus AB bisects EF
Hence AB bisects all the chords which are parallel to the tangent at the point A.
Hence Proved

Question:1

If a hexagon ABCDEF circumscribe a circle, prove that AB + CD + EF = BC + DE + FA.

Answer:

Solution
Given ABCDEF hexagon circumscribe a circle.

To Prove : AB + CD + EF = BC + DE + FA
Proof : Here AR = AS [\because length of tangents drawn from a point are always equal]
Similarly,
BS = BT
CT = CU
DU = DV
EV = EW
FW = FR
Now AB + CD + EF = (AS + SB) + (CU + UD) + (EW + WF)
= (AR + BT) + (CT + DV) + (EV + FR)
= (AR + FR) + (BT + CT) + (DV + EV)
Now according to Euclid’s axiom when equals are added in equals then the result is also equal
\Rightarrow AB + CD + EF = AF + BC + DE
i.e., AB + CD + EF = BC + DE + FA
Hence Proved

Question:2

Let s denote the semi-perimeter of a triangle ABC in which BC = a, CA = b, AB = c. If a circle touches the sides BC, CA, AB at D, E, F, respectively, prove that BD = s – b.

Answer:

Solution
Given : BC = a, CA = b, AB = c

Here, AF = AE = Z1 (\mathbb{Q} tangents drawn from an external point to the circle are equal in length)
CE=CD=Z_{2}
BD=BF=Z_{3}
Here AB + BC + CA = c + a + b
(AB + FB) + (BC + DC) + (CE + EA) = a + b + c
\left ( AB+FB \right )+\left ( BC+DC \right )+\left ( CE+EA \right )= a+b+c
\left ( Z_{1} +Z_{3}\right )+\left ( Z_{3} +Z_{2}\right )+Z_{2} +Z_{1}= a+b+c
2\left ( Z_{1}+Z_{2} +Z_{3}\right )= a+b+c
2\left ( Z_{1}+Z_{2} +Z_{3}\right )= 2S
2\left ( Z_{1}+Z_{2} +Z_{3}\right )= 2S
\left ( a+b+c= 2s= perimeter\, of\, \bigtriangleup ABC \right )
Z_{1}+Z_{2}+Z_{3}= s
Z_{3}= s-\left ( Z_{1} +Z_{2}\right )
-\Rightarrow BD= s-b \left [\because b= CE+EA= Z_{1}+Z_{2} \right ]
Hence Proved

Question:3

From an external point P, two tangents, PA and PB are drawn to a circle with centre O. At one point E on the circle tangent is drawn which intersects PA and PB at C and D, respectively. If PA = 10 cm, find the perimeter of the triangle PCD.

Answer:

In this figure
CE = CA [\because Tangents from an external point to a circle are equal in length]
Similarly,
DE = DB and PB = PA
Perimeter of DPCD
= PC + CD + PD
= PC + CE + ED + PD (\because CD = CE + ED)
= PC + CA + DB + PD \begin{bmatrix} \because CE= CA & \\ ED= DB& \end{bmatrix}
= PA + PB [\because PC + CA = PA and DB + PD = PB]
= PA + PA [\because PB = PA]
= 2PA
= 2 × 10 [\because PA = 10]
= 20 cm

Question:4

If AB is a chord of a circle with centre O, AOC is a diameter and AT is the tangent at A as shown in Figure. Prove that \angleBAT = \angleACB

Answer:

Solution
Here \angle ABC= 90^{\circ} [ AC is a diameter line, \therefore Angle in semi circle formed, is 90^{\circ}]
In \bigtriangleupABC
\angle CAB+\angle ABC+\angle BCA= 180^{\circ}
[\because sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180^{\circ}]
\angle CAB+\angle BCA= 180^{\circ}-90^{\circ} ......(I)
We know that diameter of a circle is perpendicular to the tangent.
\therefore CA\perp AT
\therefore \angle CAT= 90^{\circ}
\Rightarrow \angle CAB+\angle BAT= 90^{\circ}\cdots \left ( ii \right )
Equate equation (i) and (ii) we get
\angle CAB+\angle BAT= \angle CAB+\angle BCA
\angle BAT= \angle BCA
Hence Proved

Question:5

Two circles with centres O and O' of radii 3 cm and 4 cm, respectively intersect at two points P and Q such that OP and O'P are tangents to the two circles. Find the length of the common chord PQ.

Answer:

4.8 cm
Solution

Given : Radii of two circles are OP = 3 cm and {O}' and intersection point of two circles are P and Q. Here two tangents drawn at point P are OP and {O}'P
\therefore \: \angle P= 90^{\circ}
3^{2}-x^{2}= \left ( NP \right )^{2}
Also apply Pythagoras theorem in \bigtriangleup PN{O}' we get
\left ( P{O}' \right )^{2}= \left ( PN \right )^{2}+\left (N {O}' \right )^{2}
\left (4 \right )^{2}= \left ( PN \right )^{2}+\left (5-x \right )^{2}
16= \left ( PN \right )^{2}+\left (5-x \right )^{2}
16- \left (5-x \right )^{2}= \left ( PN \right )^{2}\cdots \left ( ii \right )
Equate equation (i) and (ii) we get
9-x^{2}= 16-\left ( 5-x \right )^{2}
9-x^{2}-16+\left ( 25+x^{2}-10x \right )= 0
\left [ \because \left ( a-b \right )^{2}= a^{2}+b^{2}-2ab \right ]
-7-x^{2}+\left ( 25+x^{2}-10x \right )= 0
-7-x^{2}+25+x^{2}-10x= 0
18-10x= 0
18= 10x
\frac{18}{10}= x

x= 1\cdot 8
Put x = 1.8 in equation (i) we get
9-\left ( 1\cdot 8 \right )^{2}= NP^{2}
9-3\cdot 24= NP^{2}
5\cdot 76= NP^{2}
NP= \sqrt{5\cdot 76}
NP= 2\cdot 4
P\mathbb{Q}= 2\times PN= 2\cdot 24= 4\cdot 8 cm

Question:6

In a right triangle ABC in which \angleB = 90^{\circ}, a circle is drawn with AB as diameter intersecting the hypotenuse AC and P. Prove that the tangent to the circle at P bisects BC.

Answer:

Solution

Let O be the center of the given circle.
Suppose P meet BC at point R
Construction: Join point P and B
To Prove: BR = RC
Proof:\angle ABC= 90^{\circ} [Given]
In \bigtriangleupABC
\angle ABC+\angle BCA+\angle CAB= 180^{\circ} [ Sum of interior angle of a triangle is 180°]
90^{\circ}+\angle 2+\angle 1= 180^{\circ}
\angle 1+\angle 2= 180^{\circ}-90^{\circ}
\angle 1+\angle 2= 90^{\circ}
Also \angle 4= \angle 1 [ tangent and chord made equal angles in alternate segment]
\Rightarrow \angle 4+\angle 2= 90^{\circ}\cdots \left ( i \right )
\angle APB= 90^{\circ} [ angle in semi circle formed is 90°]
\angle APB+\angle BPC= 180^{\circ}
\angle BPC= 180^{\circ}-90^{\circ}
\angle BPC= 90^{\circ}
\angle 4+\angle 5= 90^{\circ}\cdots \left ( ii \right )
Equal equation (i) and (ii) we get
\angle 4+\angle 2= \angle 4+\angle 5
\angle 2= \angle 5
PR= RC \, \cdots \left ( iii \right ) [Side opposite to equal angles are equal]
Also, PR = BR …..(iv) [ tangents drawn to a circle from external point are equal]
From equation (iii) and (iv)
BR = RC
Hence Proved

Question:7

In Figure, tangents PQ and PR are drawn to a circle such that \angleRPQ = 30^{\circ}. A chord RS is drawn parallel to the tangent PQ. Find the \angleRQS.

Answer:

Solution
In the given figure PQ and PR are two tangents drawn from an external point P.
\therefore PQ = PR [\mathbb{Q} lengths of tangents drawn from on external point to a circle are equal]
\Rightarrow \angle PQR=\angle QRP [ angels opposite to equal sides are equal]
In \bigtriangleupPQR
\angle PQR+\angle QRP+\angle RPQ= 180^{\circ}
[ sum of angels of a triangle is 180°]
\angle PQR+\angle PQR+\angle RPQ= 180^{\circ}
\left [ \angle PQR= \angle QRP \right ]
2\angle PQR+30^{\circ}= 180^{\circ}
\angle PQR= \frac{180^{\circ}-30^{\circ}}{2}
\angle PQR= \frac{150^{\circ}}{2}
\angle PQR= 75^{\circ}
SR||OP (Given)
\therefore \angle SRQ= \angle RQP= 75^{\circ} [Alternate interior angles]
Also \angle PQR= \angle QRS= 75^{\circ} [Alternate segment angles]
In \bigtriangleupQRS
\angle Q+\angle R+\angle S= 180^{\circ}
\angle Q+75^{\circ}+75^{\circ}= 180^{\circ}
\angle Q= 180^{\circ}-75^{\circ}-75^{\circ}
\angle Q= 30^{\circ}
\therefore \angle RQS= 30^{\circ}

Question:8

AB is a diameter and AC is a chord of a circle with centre O such that \angleBAC = 30^{\circ}. The tangent at C intersects extended AB at a point D. Prove that BC = BD.

Answer:

Solution

Given AB is a diameter and AC is a chord of circle with center O.
\angle BAC= 30^{\circ}
To Prove : BC = BD
Construction : Join B and C
Proof :\angle BCD= \angle CAB[Angle is alternate segment]
\angle BCD= 30^{\circ}\: \left [ Given \right ]
\angle BCD= 30^{\circ}\cdots \left ( i \right )
\angle ACB= 90^{\circ} [Angle in semi circle formed is 90°]
In \bigtriangleupABC
\angle CAB+\angle ABC+\angle BCA= 180^{\circ} [Sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°]
30^{\circ}+\angle ABC+90^{\circ}= 180^{\circ}
\angle ABC= 180^{\circ}-90^{\circ}-30^{\circ}
\angle ABC= 60^{\circ}
Also , \angle ABC+\angle CBD= 180^{\circ} [Linear pair]
\angle CBD= 180^{\circ}-60^{\circ}
\angle CBD= 120^{\circ}
\angle ABC= 60^{\circ}
In \bigtriangleup CBD
\angle CBD+\angle BDC+\angle DCB= 180^{\circ}
\angle BDC= 30^{\circ}\cdots \left ( ii \right )
From equation (i) and (ii)
\angle BCD= \angle BDC
\Rightarrow BC= BD[\because Sides opposite to equal angles are equal]
Hence Proved

Question:9

Prove that the tangent drawn at the mid-point of an arc of a circle is parallelto the chord joining the end points of the arc.

Answer:

Solution

Let mid-point of arc is C and DCE be the tangent to the circle.
Construction: Join AB, AC and BC.
Proof: In \bigtriangleupABC
AC = BC
\Rightarrow \, \angle CAB= \angle CBA\: \cdots \left ( i \right )
[ sides opposite to equal angles are equal]
Here DCF is a tangent line
\therefore \; \; \angle ACD= \angle CBA [ angle in alternate segments are equal]
\Rightarrow \; \angle ACD= \angle CAB …..(ii) [From equation (i)]
But Here \angle ACD and \angle CAB are alternate angels.
\therefore equation (ii) holds only when AB||DCE.
Hence the tangent drawn at the mid-point of an arc of a circle is parallel to the chord joining the end points of the arc.
Hence Proved.

Question:10

In Figure, the common tangent, AB and CD to two circles with centres O and O' intersect at E. Prove that the points O, E, O' are collinear.

Answer:

Solution
Construction : Join AO and OS
{O}'D and{O}'B

In \bigtriangleup E{O}'B and \bigtriangleup E{O}'D
{O}'D= {O}'B [Radius are equal]
{O}'E= {O}'E [Common side]
ED = EB [Tangent drawn from an external point to the line circle are equal to length]
AE{O}'B\cong E{O}'D [By SSS congruence criterion]
\Rightarrow \; \angle {O}'ED= \angle {O}'EB\, \cdots \left ( i \right )
i.e., {O}'E is bisector of\angle BED
Similarly OE is bisector of \angle AEC
In quadrilateral DEB{O}'
\angle {O}'DE= \angle {O}'BE= 90^{\circ}
\Rightarrow \, \angle {O}'DE= \angle {O}'BE= 180^{\circ}
\therefore \angle DEB+\angle D {O}'B= 180^{\circ}\, \cdots \left ( ii \right ) [\mathbb{Q}DEB{O}' is cyclic quadrilateral]
\angle AED+\angle DEB= 180^{\circ} [\mathbb{Q} AB is a straight line]
\angle AED+180^{\circ}-\angle D{O}'B= 180^{\circ} [From equation (ii)]
\angle AED-\angle D{O}'B= 0
\angle AED-\angle D{O}'B\: \: \cdots \left ( iii \right )
Similarly \angle AED= \angle ADC\: \:\cdots \left ( iv \right )
From equation (ii) \angle DEB= 180^{\circ}-\angle D{O}'B
Dividing both side by 2
\frac{\angle DEB}{2}= \frac{180^{\circ}-\angle D{O}'B}{2}
\angle DE{O}'= 90^{\circ}-\frac{1}{2}\angle D{O}'B\: \: \cdots \left ( v \right )
\left [ \because \, \frac{\angle DEB}{2}= \angle DE{O}' \right ]
Similarly \angle AEC= 180^{\circ}-\angle AOC
Dividing both side by 2
\frac{1}{2}\angle AEC= 90^{\circ}-\frac{\angle AOC}{2}
\angle AEO= 90^{\circ}-\frac{1}{2}\angle AOC\; \cdots \left ( vi \right )
\left [ \because \frac{1}{2}\angle AEC= \angle AEO \right ]
Now \angle AEO+\angle AED+\angle DE{O}'
= 90-\frac{1}{2}\angle AOC+\angle AED+90^{\circ}-\frac{1}{2}\angle D{O}'B
= \angle AED+180^{\circ}-\frac{1}{2}\left ( \angle D{O}'B+\angle AOC \right )
= \angle AED+180^{\circ}-\frac{1}{2} \left [ \angle AED+\angle AED \right ] [from equation (iii) and (iv)]
= \angle AED+180^{\circ}-\frac{1}{2} \left [ 2\angle AED \right ]
\angle AED+180^{\circ}-\angle AED
= 180^{\circ}
\therefore \: \angle AED+\angle DE{O}'+\angle AEO= 180^{\circ}
So,OEO’ is straight line
\therefore O, E and {O}' are collinear.
Hence Proved

Question:11

In Figure. O is the centre of a circle of radius 5 cm, T is a point such that OT = 13 cm and OT intersects the circle at E. If AB is the tangent to the circle at E, find the length of AB.

Answer:

Answer\frac{20}{3}\, cm
Given: Radius = 5 cm, OT = 13 cm
OP\perp PT [ PT is tangent]
Using Pythagoras theorem \bigtriangleupOPT
H^{2}+B^{2}+P^{2}
\left ( OT \right )^{2}= \left ( OP \right )^{2}+\left ( PT \right )^{2}
\left ( 13 \right )^{2}= \left ( 5 \right )^{2}+\left ( PT \right )^{2}
\left ( PT \right )^{2}= 169-25
PT= {\sqrt{144}}= 12\, cm
PT and QT are tangents from same point
\therefore PT = QT = 12 cm
AT = PT – PA
AT = 12 – PA ..…(i)
Similarly BT = 12 – QB ..…(ii)
Since PA, PF and BF, BQ are tangents from point A and B respectively.
Hence, PA = AE ..…(iii)
BQ = BE ..…(iv)
AB is tangent at point E
Hence OE \perp AB
\angle AET= 180^{\circ}-\angle AEO \left ( \because \, \angle AEO= 90^{\circ} \right )
\angle AET= 180^{\circ}-90^{\circ}
\angle AET= 90^{\circ}
ET = OT – OF
ET = 13 – 5
ET = 8 cm
In \bigtriangleupAET, using Pythagoras theorem
\left ( H \right )^{2}= \left ( B \right )^{2}+\left ( P \right )^{2}
\left ( AT \right )^{2}= \left ( AE \right )^{2}+\left ( ET \right )^{2}
\left ( 12-PA \right )^{2}= \left ( PA \right )^{2}+\left ( 8 \right )^{2} [using (i) and (ii)]
144+\left ( PA \right )^{2}-24\left ( PA \right )-\left ( PA \right )^{2}-64= 0
\left [ \because \left ( a-b \right )^{2}= a^{2}+b^{2}-2ab \right ]
80-42\left ( PA \right )= 0
24\left ( PA \right )= 80
\left ( PA \right )= \frac{80}{24}= \frac{10}{3}\, cm
\therefore \; AE= \frac{10}{3}\, cm\, \left [ using\left ( iii \right ) \right ]
Similiraly BE= \frac{10}{3}\, cm
AB= AE+BE= \frac{10}{3}+\frac{10}{3}= \frac{20}{3}\, cm

Question:12

The tangent at a point C of a circle and a diameter AB when extended intersect at P. If \anglePCA =110^{\circ} , find \angleCBA [see Figure].

Answer:
Given : \angle PCA= 110^{\circ}
Here \angle PCA= 90^{\circ}
[\because PC is tangent]

\angle PCA= \angle PCO+\angle OCA
110^{\circ}= 90^{\circ}+\angle OCA
\angle OCA= 20^{\circ}
Here OC = OA (Radius)
\therefore \: \angle OCA= \angle OAC= 20^{\circ}\cdots \left ( i \right ) [\because Sides opposite to equal angles are equal]
We know that PC is tangent and angles in alternate segment are equal.
Hence \angle BCP= \angle CAB= 20^{\circ}
In \bigtriangleup OAC
\angle O+\angle C+\angle A= 180^{\circ} [Interior angles sum of triangle is 180°]
\angle O+20^{\circ}+20^{\circ}= 180^{\circ} [using (i)]
\angle O= 180^{\circ}-40^{\circ}= 140^{\circ}…..(ii)
Here \angle COB+\angle COA= 180^{\circ}

\angle COB= 180^{\circ}-140^{\circ}( using (ii))
\angle COB= 40^{\circ} …..(iii)
In \bigtriangleup COB
\angle C+\angle O+\angle B= 180^{\circ} [using (iii)]
90^{\circ}-20^{\circ}+40^{\circ}+\angle B= 180^{\circ}
\angle B= 180^{\circ}-110^{\circ}= 70^{\circ}
Hence \angle CBA= 70^{\circ}

Question:13

If an isosceles triangle ABC, in which AB = AC = 6 cm, is inscribed in a circle of radius 9 cm, find the area of the triangle.

Answer:

Answer8\sqrt{2}\, cm^{2}
Solution
According to question

In \bigtriangleup ABD and \bigtriangleup ACO
AB = AC [Given]
BO = CO [Radius]
AO = AO [Common side]
\therefore \, \bigtriangleup ABO\cong \bigtriangleup ACO [By SSS congruence Criterion]
\angle Q_{1}= \angle Q_{2} [CPCT]
In \bigtriangleup ABD and \bigtriangleup ACD
AB = AC [given]
\angle Q_{1}= \angle Q_{2}
AD = AD [common side]
\therefore \bigtriangleup ABD\cong \bigtriangleup ACD [By SAS congruence Criterion]
\angle ADB= \angle ADC …..(i) [CPCT]
\angle ADB= \angle ADC= 180^{\circ} …..(ii)
From (i) and (ii)
\angle ADB= 90^{\circ}
OA is a perpendicular which bisects chord BC
Let AD = x, then OD = 9 – x \left ( \because OA= 9\, cm \right )
Use Pythagoras in \bigtriangleupADC
\left ( AC \right )^{2}= \left ( AD \right )^{2}+\left ( DC \right )^{2}
\left ( 6 \right )^{2}= x^{2}+\left ( DC \right )^{2}
\left ( AC \right )^{2}= 36-x^{2} …..(iii)
In \bigtriangleupODC using Pythagoras theorem
\left ( OC \right )^{2}= \left ( OD \right )^{2}+\left ( DC \right )^{2}
\left ( DC \right )^{2}= 81-\left ( 9-x \right )^{2}
…..(iv)
From (iii) and (iv)
36-x^{2}= 81-\left ( 9-x \right )^{2}
36-x^{2}- 81+\left ( 81+x^{2} -18x\right )= 0
\left [ \because \left ( a-b \right )^{2} +a^{2}+b^{2}-2ab\right ]
36-x^{2}-81+81+x^{2}-18x= 0
18x= 36
x= 2
i.e., AD = 2 cm, OD = 9 – 2 = 7 cm
Put value of x in (iii)
\left ( DC \right )^{2}= 36-4
\left ( DC \right )^{2}= 32
DC= 4\sqrt{2}\, cm
BC= BD+DC
BC= 2DC \left [ \because BD= DC \right ]
BC= 8\sqrt{2}\, cm
Areao of \bigtriangleup ABC= \frac{1}{2}\times base\times height
= \frac{1}{2}\times \times 8\sqrt{2}\times 2= 8\sqrt{2}\, cm

Question:14

A is a point at a distance 13 cm from the centre O of a circle of radius 5 cm.AP and AQ are the tangents to the circle at P and Q. If a tangent BC is drawn at a point R lying on the minor arc PQ to intersect AP at B and AQ at C, find the perimeter of the \bigtriangleupABC.

Answer:

Answer 24 cm
Solution
Let us make figure according to question


Given : OA = 13 cm, Radius = 5 cm
Here AP = AQ (tangent from same point)
OP \perp PA, OQ \perp QA ( AP, AQ are tangents)
In \bigtriangleupOPA using Pythagoras theorem
\left ( H \right )^{2}= \left ( B \right )^{2}+\left ( P \right )^{2}
\left ( QP \right )^{2}= \left ( OP \right )^{2}+\left ( PA \right )^{2}
\left ( 13 \right )^{2}= \left ( 5 \right )^{2}+\left ( PA \right )^{2}
\left ( PA \right )^{2}= 169-25
PA= \sqrt{144}= 12\, cm ........(i)
Perimeter of \bigtriangleupABC = AB + BC + CA
= AB + BR + RC + CA
= AB + BD + CQ + CA
[ BP and BR are tangents from point B and CP and CQ are tangents from point C]
= AP + AQ [ AP = AB + BP, AQ = AC + CQ]
= AP + AP [ AP = AQ]
= 2AP
= 2 × 12 [using (i)]
= 24 cm
