III. Long Answer Questions:
Question 1.
In the following figure if ∠DAB = 60°
and ∠ACB = 70°, find the measure of ∠DBA.
Answer:
Question 2.
Prove that the perpendicular from the centre of a circle to a chord, bisect the chord.
Answer:
AB is the chord of a circle with centre O and OD ⊥ AB. We have to prove that AD = DB
In ∆ ODA and ∆ ODB.
OA = OB (radii)
OD = OD (common)
∠ODA = ∠ODB = 90° (OD ⊥ AB)
∆ ODA = ∆ ODB (R H S)
AD = DB [C.P.C.T].
Question 3.
If two equal chords of a circle intersect within the circle, prove that the segments of an chord are equal to corresponding segment of the other chord.
Answer:
OL ⊥ AB and OM ⊥ CD are drawn and OP is joined.
In ∆ OLP and ∆ OMP, since equal chords are at equal distance from centres.
OL = OM (OP common)
∠OLP = ∠OMP =90°
∆ OPL ≅ ∆ OPM. (R H S)
=> PL = PM [C.P.C.T]
But, AL = CM
=> AL – PL = CM – PM
=> AP = CP
Also, AB – AP = CD – CP
∴BP = DP
Thus, corresponding segments are equals.
Question 4.
If two interesting chords of a circle make equal angel with that: diameter passing through their point of intersecting. Prove that the chords are equal.
Answer:
OE = OE (common)
∴ By A AS congruence
∆ OME ≅ ∆ ONE
OM = ON (C.P.C.T)
∴ AB = GD [Distance between the center to the chords equal.]
∴ Length of the chords are equal.
Question 5.
Two concentric circles of radii 13 cm and 5 cm are drawn. Find the length of the chord of the outer circle which touches the inner circle.
Answer:
In A OPB [P = 90°
OB2 = OP2 + BP2
(13)2 = (5)2 + BP2
BP2 = 165 – 25 = 144
AB = 2BP = 2 x 12 = 24cm
Question 6.
Tangents AP and AQ are drawn to circle with centre O, from an external point A. Prove that ∠PAQ = 2∠OPQ
Answer:
Question 7.
Circles C1 and C2 touch internally at a point A and AB is a chord at the circle C1 intersecting C2 at P. Prove that AP = PB.
Answer:
HYP OA = HYP OB [radii]
OP = OP [common]
∆ OAP ≅ ∆ OPB [by RHS theorem]
AP = PB [C.P.C.T]
Question 8.
A circle is touching the side BC of ∆ ABC at P. AB and AC when produced are touching the circle at Q and R respectively. Prove that AQ = V2 (Perimeter of ∆ ABC)
Answer:
AQ = AR → (1) [tangents drawn from A]
BP = BQ → (2) [tangents drawn from B]
CQ = CR → (3) [tangents drawn from C]
Perimeter of ∆ ABC = AB + BC + AC
= AB + BP + PC + AC
= AB + BQ + CR + AC
[From (1), (2) & (3)]
= AQ + AR
= AQ + AQ [∴ using(1)]
Perimeter of ∆ ABC = 2 AQ
AQ = 1/2 (Perimeter of ∆ ABC)
Question 9.
A straight line drawn through the point of contact of two circles with centres A and B intersect the circles at P and Q respectively. Show that AP and BQ are parallel.
Answer:
In ∆ APC
AP = AC [radii of same circle]
Question 10.
Two circles with centres X and Y touch each other externally at P. Two diameters AB and CD are drawn one in each circle parallel to other. Prove that B, P and C are coliinear.
Answer:
∴ APD and BPC are two intersecting lines
∴ BPC is a straight line
∴ B, P, C are coliinear.
