NCERT Exemplar Class 10 Maths Solutions Chapter 9 extends the learning of circles. In our daily lives, we see wheels, coins, bangles, and round plates, which are circular in shape. So, what is a circle? A circle is a two-dimensional, closed, curved shape where all the points on the boundary are at an equal distance from a fixed point. This fixed point is called the centre, and the constant distance is known as the radius. The line passing through the center and touching both sides of the circle is the diameter, which is twice the radius. A circle does not have sides or corners, and it is perfectly symmetrical around its centre.
This chapter covers the solution of the NCERT Exemplar Class 10 Maths chapter 9 solutions have been developed by our experienced Mathematics subject matter experts to give students a quick and easy understanding of NCERT Class 10 Maths. These Class 10 Maths NCERT exemplar Chapter 9 solutions on the chapter circles are exceptionally well structured and detailed.

i.e.,
In quadrilateral, ABCD
[
Here, we conclude that the angle between the tangents at A and B is
Therefore, the given statement is False.
Question:2
Answer:
Case I – When the external point P is very close to the circle
Here, C is the center of the circle. Let this radius be 5 and the distance of Px and Py be 3. Or we can say that Case I contradicts the given statement.
Case II – When the external point P is far from the circle.
Here the radius of the given circle is 5 cm, and let the length of Px and Py be 10 cm.
Hence, according to Case II, the given statement is True.
Hence, from the above two cases, we conclude that the tangent’s length is dependent on the distance of an external point from the circle.
Therefore given statement is False because the length of a 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
Answer:
Here, O is the center of the given circle, and PA is the tangent, which is drawn from an external point P. OA is the radius of the circle. We know that the tangent and radius are always perpendicular to each other.
From equation (I), we can say that PA is always less than PO.
In other words, we can say that the length of the hypotenuse is always greater than the length of the perpendicular in a right-angle triangle.

Answer:
According to the 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, and O3 to point A, then the line is perpendicular to line PQ because if we draw a line from the center to another circle at any point, then the tangent at that point is perpendicular to the radius.
But here, the line joining the centers does not bisect the line PQ because it depends on the length of PQ.
Hence, the given statement is False.
Question:9
Answer:
According to the question.
Here, C1 and C2 circles pass through the points P and Q.
We know that the perpendicular bisector of the chord of a circle always passes through the center of the circle. Hence, the perpendicular bisector of line PQ passes through the center of the circles of C1 and C2.

Hope this helps you .
Hello Aspirant, Hope your doing great, your question was incomplete and regarding what exam your asking.
Yes, scoring above 80% in ICSE Class 10 exams typically meets the requirements to get into the Commerce stream in Class 11th under the CBSE board . Admission criteria can vary between schools, so it is advisable to check the specific requirements of the intended CBSE school. Generally, a good academic record with a score above 80% in ICSE 10th result is considered strong for such transitions.
hello Zaid,
Yes, you can apply for 12th grade as a private candidate .You will need to follow the registration process and fulfill the eligibility criteria set by CBSE for private candidates.If you haven't given the 11th grade exam ,you would be able to appear for the 12th exam directly without having passed 11th grade. you will need to give certain tests in the school you are getting addmission to prove your eligibilty.
best of luck!
According to cbse norms candidates who have completed class 10th, class 11th, have a gap year or have failed class 12th can appear for admission in 12th class.for admission in cbse board you need to clear your 11th class first and you must have studied from CBSE board or any other recognized and equivalent board/school.
You are not eligible for cbse board but you can still do 12th from nios which allow candidates to take admission in 12th class as a private student without completing 11th.
