PSEB Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 10 Circles Ex 10.6

Question 1.
Prove that the line segment joining the centres of two intersecting circles subtends equal angles at the two points of intersection.
Answer:

Circles with centres O and P intersect each other at points A and B.
In ∆ OAP and ∆ OBR
OA = OB (Radii of circle with centre O)
PA = PB (Radii of circle with centre P)
OP = OP (Common)
∴ By SSS rule, ∆ OAP = ∆ OBP
∴ ∠OAP = ∠OBP (CPCT)
Thus, OP subtends equal angles at A and B. Hence, the line segment joining the centres of two intersecting circles subtends equal angles at the two points of intersection.

Question 2.
Two chords AB and CD of lengths 5 cm and 11 cm respectively of a circle are parallel to each other and are on opposite sides of its centre. If the distance between AB and CD is 6 cm, find the radius of the circle.
Answer:

Draw the perpendicular bisector of AB to intersect AB at M and draw the perpendicular bisector of CD to intersect CD at N.
Both these perpendicular bisectors pass through centre O and since AB || CD; M, O and N are collinear points.
Now, MB = \(\frac{1}{2}\)AB = \(\frac{5}{2}\) = 2.5 cm,
CN = \(\frac{1}{2}\)CD = \(\frac{11}{2}\) = 5.5 cm and MN = 6 cm.
Let ON = x cm s
∴ OM = MN – ON = (6 – x) cm
Suppose the radius of the circle is r cm.
∴ OB = OC = r cm
In ∆ OMB, ∠M = 90°
∴OB² = OM² + MB²
∴ r² = (6 – x)² + (2.5)²
∴ r² = 36 – 12x + x² + 6.25 ………….. (1)
In ∆ ONC, ∠N = 90°
∴ OC² = ON² + CN²
∴ r² = (x)² + (5.5)²
∴ r² = x² + 30.25 ………………. (2)
From (1) and (2),
36 – 12x + x² + 6.25 = x² + 30.25
∴ – 12x = 30.25 – 6.25 – 36
∴- 12x = – 12
∴x = 1
Now, r² = x² + 30.25
∴ r² = (1)2 + 30.25
∴ r² = 31.25
∴ r = √31.25 (Approximately 5.6)
Thus, the radius of the circle is √31.25 (approximately 5.6) cm.
Note: If the calculations are carried out in simple fractions, then MB = \(\frac{5}{2}\) cm, CN = \(\frac{11}{2}\) cm and radius is \(\frac{5 \sqrt{5}}{2}\) (approximately 5.6) cm.

Question 3.
The lengths of two parallel chords of a circle are 6 cm and 8 cm. If the smaller chords is at distance 4 cm from the cehtre, what is the distance of the other chord from the centre?
Answer:

In a circle with centre O, chord AB is parallel to chord CD, AB = 8 cm and CD = 6 cm.
Draw OM ⊥ AB, ON ⊥ CD, radius OB and radius OC.
Then, MB = \(\frac{1}{2}\)AB = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 8 = 4 cm,
NC = \(\frac{1}{2}\)CD = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 6 = 3cm and ON = 4cm.
In ∆ ONC, ∠N = 90°
∴ OC² = ON² + NC² = 4² + 3² = 16 + 9 = 25
∴ OC = 5 cm
∴ OB = 5 cm (OB = OC = Radius)
In ∆ OMB, ∠M = 90°
∴ OB² = OM² + MB²
∴ 5² = OM² + 4²
∴ 25 = OM² + 16
∴ OM² = 9
∴ OM = 3 cm
Thus, the distance of the other chord from the centre is 3 cm.

Question 4.
Let the vertex of an angle ABC be located outside a circle and let the sides of the angle intersect equal chords AD and CE with the circle. Prove that ∠ABC is equal to half the difference of the angles subtended by the chords AC and DE at the centre.
Answer:

In ∆ ABE, ∠AEC is an exterior angle.
∴ ∠AEC = ∠ABE + ∠BAE
∴ ∠ABE = ∠AEC – ∠BAE
∴ ∠ABC = ∠AEC – ∠DAE ……………. (1)
Now, ∠AEC = \(\frac{1}{2}\) ∠AOC (Theorem 10.8)
and ∠ DAE = \(\frac{1}{2}\) ∠DOE (Theorem 10.8)
Substituting above values in (1),
∠ABC = \(\frac{1}{2}\) ∠AOC – \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠DOE
∴ ∠ABC = \(\frac{1}{2}\) (∠AOC – ∠DOE)
Here, ∠AOC is the angle subtended by chord AC at the centre and ∠DOE is the angle subtended by chord DE at the centre.
Thus, ∠ABC is equal to half the difference of the angles subtended by the chords AC and DE at the centre.
Note: There is no need for chords AD and CE to be equal.

Question 5.
Prove that the circle drawn with any side of a rhombus as diameter passes through the point of intersection of its diagonals.
Answer:

ABCD is a rhombus and its diagonals intersect at M.
∴ ∠BMC is a right angle.
A circle is drawn with diameter BC.
There are three possibilities for point M:
(1) M lies in the interior of the circle,
(2) M lies in the exterior of the circle.
(3) M lies on the circle.
According to (1), if M lies in the interior of the circle, then BM produced will intersect the circle at E. Then, ∠BEC is an angle in a semicircle and hence a right angle, i.e.,
∠MEC = 90°.
In ∆ MEC, ∠ BMC is an exterior angle.
∴ ∠ BMC > ∠ MEC, i.e., ∠ BMC > 90°. In this situation, ∠ BMC is an obtuse angle which contradicts that ∠ BMC = 90°.
Similarly, according to (2), if M lies in the exterior of the circle, then ∠BMC is an acute angle which contradicts that ∠BMC 90°. Thus, possibilities (1) and (2) cannot be true.
Hence, only possibility (3) is true, i.e., M lies on the circle.
Thus, the circle drawn with any side of a rhombus as diameter passes through the point of intersection of its diagonals.

Question 6.
ABCD is a parallelogram. The circle through A, B and C intersects CD (produced if necessary at) E. Prove that AE = AD.
Answer:

Here, the circle through A, B and C intersects CD at E.
∴ Quadrilateral ABCE is cyclic.
ABCD is a parallelogram.
∴ ∠ABC = ∠ADC
∴ ∠ABC = ∠ADE
In cyclic quadrilateral ABCE,
∠ABC + ∠AEC = 180°
∴ ∠ADE + ∠AEC = 180° ……………… (1)
Moreover, ∠AEC and ∠AED form a linear pair.
∴ ∠AED + ∠AEC = 180° ………………. (2)
From (1) and (2),
∠ADE + ∠AEC = ∠AED + ∠AEC
∴ ∠ ADE = ∠ AED
Thus, in ∆ AED, ∠ADE = ∠AED.
∴ AE = AD (Sides opposite to equal angles)
Note: If the circle intersect CD produced, l then also the result can be proved in similar way.

Question 7.
AC and BD are chords of a circle which bisect each other. Prove that (i) AC and BD are diameters, (ii) ABCD is a rectangle.
Answer:

Chords AC and BD of a circle bisect each other at point O.
Hence, the diagonals of quadrilateral ABCD bisect each other.
∴ Quadrilateral ABCD Is a parallelogram.
∴ ∠BAC = ∠ACD (Alternate angles formed by transversal AC of AB || CD)
Moreover, ∠ACD = ∠ABD (Angles in same segment)
∴ ∠BAC = ∠ABD
∴ ∠BAO = ∠ABO
∴ In A OAB, OA = OB.
But, OA = OC and OB = OD
∴ OA = OB = OC = OD
∴ OA + OC = OB + OD
∴ AC = BD
Thus, the diagonals of parallelogram ABCD are equal.
∴ ABCD is a rectangle.
∴ ∠ABC = 90°
Hence, ∠ABC is an angle in a semicircle and AC is a diameter.
Similarly, ∠BAD = 90°.
Hence, ∠BAD is an angle in a semicircle and BD is a diameter.

Question 8.
Bisectors of angles A, B and C of a triangle ABC intersect its circumcircle at D, E and F respectively. Prove that the angles of the triangle DEF are 90° – \(\frac{1}{2}\)A, 90° – \(\frac{1}{2}\)B and 90° – \(\frac{1}{2}\)C.
Answer:

The bisectors of ∠A, ∠B and ∠ C of ∆ ABC intersect the circumcircle of ∆ ABC at D, E and F respectively. .
∠FDE = ∠FDA + ∠EDA (Adjacent angles)
= ∠ FCA + ∠ EBA (Angles in same segment)
= \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠C + \(\frac{1}{2}\)∠B (Bisector of angles in ∆ ABC)
= \(\frac{1}{2}\)(∠ B + ∠ C)
= \(\frac{1}{2}\)(180° – ∠A) [∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°)
= 90° – \(\frac{1}{2}\) ∠A
Thus, ∠FDE = 90° – \(\frac{1}{2}\) ∠A.
Similarly, ∠ DEF = 90° – \(\frac{1}{2}\) ∠B and
∠ EFD = 90° – \(\frac{1}{2}\) ∠C.

Question 9.
Two congruent circles intersect each Other at points A and B. Through A any line segment PAQ is drawn so that P 9 lie-on. , the two circles. Prove that BP = BQ.
Answer:

Two congruent circles with centres X and Y intersect at A and B.
Hence, AB is their common chord.
In congruent circles, equal chords subtend equal angles at the centres.
∴ ∠AXB = ∠AYB
In the circle with centre X, ∠AXB = 2∠APB and in the circle with centre Y, ∠AYB = 2∠AQB.
∴ 2∠ APB = 2∠ AQB
∴ ∠APB = ∠AQB
∴ ∠QPB = ∠PQB
Thus, in ∆ BPQ, ∠QPB = ∠PQB
∴ QB = PB (Sides opposite to equal angles)
Hence, BP = BQ.

Question 10.
In any triangle ABC, if the angle bisector of ∠A and perpendicular bisector of BC intersect, prove that they intersect on the circumcircle of the triangle ABC.
Answer:

In ∆ ABC, the bisector of ∠A intersects the circumcircle of ∆ ABC at D.
∴∠BAD = ∠CAD
Aso, ∠BAD = ∠BCD and ∠CAD = ∠CBD (Angles in same segment)
∴ ∠BCD = ∠CBD
Thus, in ∆ BCD, ∠BCD = ∠CBD
∴BD = CD (Sides opposite to equal angles)
Thus, point D is equidistant from B and C.
Hence, D is a point on the perpendicular bisector of BC.
Thus, the bisector of ∠ A and the perpendicular bisector of side BC intersect at D and D is a point on the circumcircle of ∆ ABC.
Thus, in ∆ ABC, if the angle bisector of ∠A and the perpendicular bisector of side BC intersect, they intersect on the circumcircle of ∆ ABC.
Note: In ∆ ABC, if AB = AC, then the bisector of ∠A and the perpendicular bisector of side BC will coincide , and would not intersect in a single point.

PSEB Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 6 Triangles Ex 6.2

Question 1.
In fig. (i) and (ü), DE U BC. Find EC in (i) and AD in (ii).

Solution:
(i) In ∆ABC, DE || BC ……………(given)
∴ \(\frac{\mathrm{AD}}{\mathrm{BD}}=\frac{\mathrm{AE}}{\mathrm{EC}}\)
[By using Basic Proportionality Theorem]
\(\frac{1.5}{3}=\frac{1}{\mathrm{EC}}\)
EC = \(\frac{3}{1.5}\)
EC = \(\frac{3 \times 10}{15}\) = 2
∴ EC = 2 cm.

(ii) In ∆ABC,
DE || BC ……………(given)
∴ \(\frac{\mathrm{AD}}{\mathrm{BD}}=\frac{\mathrm{AE}}{\mathrm{EC}}\)
[By using Basic Proportionality Theorem]
\(\frac{\mathrm{AD}}{7.2}=\frac{1.8}{5.4}\)
AD = \(\frac{1.8 \times 7.2}{5.4}\)
= \(\frac{1.8}{10} \times \frac{72}{10} \times \frac{10}{54}=\frac{24}{10}\)
AD = 2.4
∴ AD = 2.4 cm.

Question 2.
E and F are points on the sides PQ and PR respectively of a APQR. For each of the following cases, state whether EF || QR :
(i) PE = 3.9 cm, EQ = 3 cm, PF = 3.6 cm and FR = 2.4 cm
(ii) PE =4 cm, QE = 4.5 cm, PF =8 cm and RF = 9cm.
(iii) PQ = 1.28 cm, PR = 2.56 cm, PE = 0.18 cm and PF = 0.36 cm.
Solution:
In ∆PQR, E and F are two points on side PQ and PR respectively.

(i) PE = 3.9 cm, EQ = 3 cm
PF = 3.6 cm, FR = 2.4 cm
\(\frac{\mathrm{PE}}{\mathrm{EQ}}=\frac{3.9}{3}=\frac{39}{30}=\frac{13}{10}=1.3\)

\(\frac{P F}{F R}=\frac{3.6}{2.4}=\frac{36}{24}=\frac{3}{2}=1.5\) \(\frac{\mathrm{PE}}{\mathrm{EQ}} \neq \frac{\mathrm{PF}}{\mathrm{FR}}\)

∴ EF is not parallel to QR.

(ii) PE = 4 cm, QE = 4.5 cm,
PF = 8 cm, RF = 9 cm.
\(\frac{\mathrm{PE}}{\mathrm{QE}}=\frac{4}{4.5}=\frac{40}{45}=\frac{8}{9}\) ………….(1)
\(\frac{P F}{R F}=\frac{8}{9}\) ……………..(2)
From (1) and (2),
\(\frac{\mathrm{PE}}{\mathrm{QE}}=\frac{\mathrm{PF}}{\mathrm{RF}}\)
∴ By converse of Basic Proportionality theorem EF || QR.

(iii) PQ = 1.28 cm, PR = 2.56 cm
PE = 0.18 cm, PF = 0.36 cm.
EQ = PQ – PE = 1.28 – 0.18 = 1.10 cm
ER = PR – PF = 2.56 – 0.36 = 2.20 cm
Here \(\frac{\mathrm{PE}}{\mathrm{EQ}}=\frac{0.18}{1.10}=\frac{18}{110}=\frac{9}{55}\) …………..(1)

and \(\frac{\mathrm{PF}}{\mathrm{FR}}=\frac{0.36}{2.20}=\frac{36}{220}=\frac{9}{55}\) …………….(2)

From (1) and (2),
\(\frac{\mathrm{AM}}{\mathrm{MB}}=\frac{\mathrm{AN}}{\mathrm{ND}}\)

or \(\frac{\mathrm{MB}}{\mathrm{AM}}=\frac{\mathrm{ND}}{\mathrm{AN}}\)

or \(\frac{\mathrm{MB}}{\mathrm{AM}}+1=\frac{\mathrm{ND}}{\mathrm{AN}}+1\)
or \(\frac{\mathrm{MB}+\mathrm{AM}}{\mathrm{AM}}=\frac{\mathrm{ND}+\mathrm{AN}}{\mathrm{AN}}\)

or \(\frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\mathrm{AM}}=\frac{\mathrm{AD}}{\mathrm{AN}}\)

or \(\frac{\mathrm{AM}}{\mathrm{AB}}=\frac{\mathrm{AN}}{\mathrm{AD}}\)
Hence, \(\frac{\mathrm{AM}}{\mathrm{AB}}=\frac{\mathrm{AN}}{\mathrm{AD}}\) is the required result.

Solution:
Given:
In ∆PQR, DE || OQ DF || OR.
To prove: EF || QR.
Proof: In ∆PQO, ED || QO (given)

Solution:
Given: In ∆ABC, D is mid point of AB, i.e. AD = DB.
A line parallel to BC intersects AC at E as shown in figure. i.e., DE || BC.

To prove: E is mid point of AC.
Proof: D is mid point of AB.
i.e.. AD = DB (given)
Or \(\frac{\mathrm{AD}}{\mathrm{BD}}\) = 1 ……………..(1)
Again in ∆ABC DE || BC (given)
∴ \(\frac{\mathrm{AD}}{\mathrm{DB}}=\frac{\mathrm{AE}}{\mathrm{EC}}\)
[By Basic Proportionality Theorem]
∴ 1 = \(\frac{\mathrm{AE}}{\mathrm{EC}}\) [From (1)]
∴ AE = EC
∴ E is mid point of AC. Hence proved.

PSEB Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Ex 5.4

Question 1.
Which term of the A.P. 121, 117, 113, …………. is its first negative term?
Solution:
Given A.P is 121, 117, 113, …
Here a = T₁ = 121 ;T₂ = 117; T₃ = 113
d = T₂ – T₁ = 117 – 121 = – 4
Using formula, T_n = a + (n – 1) d
T_n = 121 + (n – 1) (- 4)
= 121 – 4n + 4
= 125 – 4n.
According to question :—
T_n < 0
or 125 – 4n < 0
or 125 < 4n or 4n > 125.
or n > \(\frac{125}{4}\)
or n > 31\(\frac{1}{4}\).
But n must be integer, for first negative term.
∴ n = 32.
Hence, 32nd term be the first negative term of given A.P.

Question 2.
The sum of the third and the seventh term of an A.P. is 6 and their product ¡s 8. Find the sum of first sixteer
terms of an A.P.
Solution:
Let ‘a’ and ‘d’ be the first term and common diftèrence of given A.P.
According to 1st condition
T₃ + T₇ = 6
[a + (3 – 1)d] + [a + (7 – 1) d] = 6
∵ [T_n = a + (n – 1) d]
or a + 2d + a + 6d = 6
or 2a + 8d = 6
or a + 4d = 3 …………….(1)
According to 2nd condition
T₃ (T₇) = 8
[a + (3 – 1) d] [a + (7 – 1)d] = 8
∵ [T_n = a + (n – 1) d]
or (a + 2d) (a + 6d) = 8
or [3 – 4d + 2d] [3 – 4d + 6d] = 8
[Using (1), a = 3 – 4d]
or (3 – 2d) (3 + 2d) = 8
or 9 – 4d² = 8
or 4d² = 98
or d² = \(\frac{1}{4}\)
d = ± \(\frac{1}{2}\)

Case I:
When d = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
Putting d = \(\frac{1}{2}\) in (1), we get:
a + 4 (\(\frac{1}{2}\)) = 3
or a + 2 = 3
or a = 3 – 2 = 1
Using formula, S_n = \(\frac{n}{2}\) [2a + (n – 1) d]
S¹⁶ = \(\frac{16}{2}\) [2 (1) + (16 – 1) \(\frac{1}{2}\)].

Case II:
Putting d = – \(\frac{1}{2}\) in (1), we get,
When d = – \(\frac{1}{2}\)
a + 4 (-\(\frac{1}{2}\)) = 3
a – 2 = 3
or a = 3 + 2 = 5
Using formula,
S_n = \(\frac{n}{2}\) [2a + (n – 1)d]
S₁₆ = \(\frac{16}{2}\) [2(5) + (16 – 1) (-\(\frac{1}{2}\))]
= 8[10 – \(\frac{15}{2}\)]
= 8 \(\left[\frac{20-15}{2}=\frac{5}{2}\right]\)
S₁₆ = 20.

Question 3.
A ladder has rungs 25 cm apart (see fig.) The rungs decrease uniformly in length from 45 cm at the bottom to 25 cm at the top. If the top and bottom rungs are 2 latex]\frac{1}{2}[/latex] m apart, what is the length of the wood required for the rungs?

[Hint: Number of rungs = \(\frac{250}{25}\) + 1]
Solution:
Total length of rungs = 2 \(\frac{1}{2}\) m = \(\frac{5}{2}\) m
= (\(\frac{5}{2}\) × 100) cm = 250 cm
Length of each rung = 25 cm
∴ Number of rungs = \(\frac{\text { Total length of rungs }}{\text { Length of each rung }}\) + 1
= \(\frac{250}{25}\) + 1 = 10 + 1 = 11
Length of first rung =45 cm
Here a = 45; l = 25; n = 11
Length of the wood for rungs
= S₁₁
= \(\frac{n}{2}\) [a + l]
= \(\frac{11}{2}\) [45 + 25]
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 70
= 11 × 35 = 385
Hence, length of the wood for rungs has 385 cm.

Question 4.
The houses of a row are numbered consecutively from 1 to 49. Show that there is a value of x such that the sum of the numbers of the houses preceding the house numbered x is equal to the sum of the numbers of the houses following it and find this value of x.
[Hint: S_{x – 1} = S₄₉ – S₁]
Solution:
Let ‘x’ denotes the number of any house.
Here a = T₁ = 1 ;d = 1
According to question,
S_{x – 1} = S₄₉ – S_x
= \(\frac{x-1}{2}\) [2 (1) + (x – 1 – 1) (1)]
= \(\frac{49}{2}\) [1 + 49] – \(\frac{x}{2}\) [2 (1) + (x – 1) (1)]
[Using S_n = \(\frac{n}{2}\) [2a + (n – 1) d] and S_n = \(\frac{n}{2}\) (a + l) ]
or \(\frac{x-1}{2}\) [2 + x – 2] = \(\frac{49}{2}\) (50) – \(\frac{x}{2}\) [2 + x – 1]
or \(\frac{x(x-1)}{2}=49(25)-\frac{x(x+1)}{2}\)
or \(\frac{x}{2}\) [x – 1 + x + 1] = 1225
\(\frac{x}{2}\) × 2x = 1225
or x² = 1225
or x = 35.

Question 5.
A small terrace at a football ground comprises of 15 step each of which is 50 m long and built of solid concrete. Each step has a rise of \(\frac{1}{4}\) m and a tread of \(\frac{1}{2}\) m (see fig.) Calculate the total volume of concrete required to build the terrace.
[Hint: Volume of concrete required to build of the first step \(\frac{1}{4}\) × \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 50 m³].

Solution:
Volume of concrete required to build the first step \(\frac{1}{4}\) × \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 50 m³]
= [latex]\frac{25}{4}[/latex] m³
Volume of concrete required to build the second step = [\(\frac{25}{4}\) × \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 50] m³

= \(\frac{75}{2}\) m³
Volume of concrete required to build the third step = [\(\frac{3}{4}\) × \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 50] m³ and so on upto 15 steps.

Here a = T₁ = \(\frac{25}{4}\);
T₂ = \(\frac{25}{2}\);
T₃ = \(\frac{75}{4}\); and n = 15.
d = T₂ – T₁ = \(\frac{25}{2}\) – \(\frac{25}{4}\)
= \(\frac{50-25}{4}\) = \(\frac{25}{4}\).

Total volume of concrete required to buld the terrace = S₁₅
= \(\frac{n}{2}\) [2a + (n – 1)d]
= \(\frac{15}{2}\left[2\left(\frac{25}{4}\right)+(15-1) \frac{25}{4}\right]\)
= \(\left[\frac{25}{4} \times \frac{14 \times 25}{4}\right]\)
= \(\frac{15}{2}\left[\frac{25}{2} \times \frac{175}{2}\right]\)
= \(\frac{15}{2} \times \frac{200}{2}\) = 750
Hence, total volume of concrete required to build the terrace is 750 m³.

PSEB Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 10 Circles Ex 10.5

Question 1.
In the given figure, A, B and C are three points on a circle with centre O such that ∠BOC = 30° and ∠AGB = 60°. If D is a point on the circle other than the arc ABC, find ∠ADC.

Answer:
∠AOC = ∠AOB + ∠BOC (Adjacent angles)
∴ ∠AQC = 60° + 30°
∴ ∠AOC = 90°
Now, 2 ∠ADC = ∠AOC (Theorem 10.8)
∴ ∠ADC = \(\frac{1}{2}\) ∠AOC
∴ ∠ADC = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 90°
∴ ∠ADC = 45°

Question 2.
A chord of a circle is equal to the radius of the circle. Find the angle subtended by the chord at a point on the minor arc and also at a point on the major arc.
Answer:

In the circle with centre O, chord AB is equal to radius PA.
∴ In ∆ PAB, PA = PB = AB
∆ PAB is an equilateral triangle.
∴ ∠ APB = 60°
Now, 2∠AYB = ∠APB (Theorem 10.8)
∴ ∠AYB = \(\frac{1}{2}\) ∠APB
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 60° = 30°
Quadrilateral AXBY is a cyclic quadrilateral.
∴ ∠X + ∠Y = 180° (Theorem 10.11)
∴ ∠X + 30°= 180°
∴ ∠X = 150°
Thus, the angle subtended by the chord at point X on the minor arc is 150° and the angle subtended by the chord at point Y on the major arc is 30°.

Question 3.
In the given figure, ∠PQR = 100°, where P, Q and R are points on a circle with centre O. Find ∠OPR.

Answer:
Here, reflex angle ∠POR = 2 × ∠PQR (Theorem 10.8)
∴ Reflex angle ∠POR = 2 × 100° = 200°
Now, ∠POR + Reflex angle ∠POR = 360°
∴ ∠POR + 200° = 360°
∴∠POR = 160°
In ∆ OPR. OP = OR (Radii)
∴ ∠OPR = ∠ORP
In ∆ OPR, ∠OPR + ∠ORP + ∠POR = 180°
∴ ∠OPR + ∠OPR + 160° = 180°
∴ 2∠OPR = 20°
∴ ∠OPR = 10°

Question 4.
In the given figure, ∠ABC = 69°, ∠ACB = 31°, find ∠BDC.

Answer:
In ∆ ABC, ∠ABC + ∠ACB + ∠BAC = 180°
∴ 69° + 31° + ∠BAC = 180°
∴ 100° + ∠BAC = 180°
∴ ∠BAC = 80°
Now, ∠BDC = ∠BAC (Theorem 10.9)
∴ ∠BDC = 80°

Question 5.
In the given figure, A, B, C and D are four s points on a circle. AC and BD intersect at a point E such that ∠BEC = 130° and ∠ECD = 20°. Find ∠BAC.

Answer:
In ∆ CDE, ∠BEC is an exterior angle.
∴ ∠BEC = ∠ECD + ∠EDC
∴ 130° = 20° + ∠BDC
∴ ∠BDC = 110°
Now, ∠BAC = ∠BDC (Theorem 10.9)
∴ ∠BAC = 110°

Question 6.
ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral Whose diagonals intersect at a point E. If ∠DBC = 70°, ∠BAC is 30°, find ∠BCD. Further, if AB = BC, find ∠ECD.
Answer:

∠DAC = ∠DBC (Theorem 10.9)
∴ ∠DAC = 70°
∠BAD = ∠BAC + ∠DAC (Adjacent angles)
∴ ∠BAD = 30° + 70°
∴ ∠BAD = 100°
In cyclic quadrilateral ABCD,
∠ BAD + ∠BCD = 180° (Theorem 10.11)
∴ 100° + ∠ BCD = 180°
∴ ∠BCD = 80°
In ∆ ABC, if AB = BC, then ∠ BAC = ∠ BCA
∴ 30° = ∠BCA
∴ ∠BCA = 30°
∠BCD = ∠BCA + ∠ACD (Adjacent angles)
∴ 80° = 30° + ∠ACD
∴ ∠ACD = 50°
∴ ∠ECD = 50°

Question 7.
If diagonals of a cyclic quadrilateral are diameters of the circle through the vertices of the quadrilateral, prove that it is a rectangle.
Answer:

The vertices of cyclic quadrilateral ABCD lie on a circle with centre O and AC and BD are diameters of the circle.
As AC is a diameter, ∠ABC = ∠ADC = 90° (Angle in a semicircle)
As BD is a diameter, ∠BCD = ∠BAD = 90° (Angle in a semicircle)
Thus, all the four angles, ∠BAD, ∠ABC, ∠BCD and ∠ADC of quadrilateral ABCD are right angles.
Hence, quadrilateral ABCD is a rectangle.

Question 8.
If the non-parallel sides of a trapezium are equal, prove that it is cyclic.
Answer:

In trapezium ABCD, AB || CD and AD = BC.
Draw AM ⊥ CD and BN ⊥ CD, where M and N are points on CD.
In ∆ AMD and ∆ BNC,
∠AMD = ∠BNC (Right angles)
Hypotenuse AD = Hypotenuse BC (Given)
AM = BN (Distance between parallel lines)
∴ By RHS rule, ∆ AMD ≅ ∆ BNC
∴ ∠ADM = ∠BCN
∴ ∠ADC = ∠BCD
Now, AB || CD and AD is their transversal.
∴ ∠BAD + ∠ADC = 180° (Interior angles on the same side of transversal)
∴ ∠ BAD + ∠BCD = 180°
Thus, in quadrilateral ABCD, ∠A + ∠C = 180°.
Hence, ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral.

Question 9.
Two circles intersect at two points B and C. Through B, two line segments ABD and PBQ are drawn to intersect the circles at A, D and P, Q respectively (see the given figure). Prove that ∠ACP = ∠QCD.
Answer:

∠ACP and ∠ABP are angles in the same segment.
∴ ∠ACP = ∠ABP (Theorem 10.9) …………… (1)
∠QCD and ∠QBD are angles in the same segment.
∴ ∠QCD = ∠QBD (Theorem 10.9) …………….. (2)
Now, ∠ABP and ∠QBD are vertically opposite angles.
∴ ∠ABP = ∠QBD ………………… (3)
From (1), (2) and (3),
∠ACP = ∠QCD

Question 10.
If circles are drawn taking two sides of a triangle as diameters, prove that the point of intersection of these circles lie on the third side.

Answer:
Circles are drawn taking sides AB and AC of ∆ ABC as diameters. These circles intersect each other at points A and P.
Draw common chord AP.
Since AB is a diameter, ∠APB is an angle in a semicircle.
∴ ∠APB = 90°
Since, AC is a diameter, ∠APC is an angle in a semicircle.
∴ ∠APC = 90°
Then, ∠APB + ∠APC = 90° + 90° = 180°
∠APB and ∠APC are adjacent angles with common arm AP and their sum is 180°.
∴ ∠APB and ∠APC form a linear pair.
Hence, the point of intersection of the circles with two sides of a triangle as diameters lies on the third side of the triangle.

Question 11.
ABC and ADC are two right triangles with common hypotenuse AC., Prove that ∠CAD = ∠CBD.
Answer:

In figure (1), line segment AC subtends equal angles at two points B and D lying on the same side of AC. Hence, by theorem 10.10, all the four points lie on the same circle.
Now, ∠CAD and ∠CBD are angles in the same segment.
∴ ∠CAD = ∠CBD (Theorem 10.9)
In figure (2), in quadrilateral ABCD,
∠B = ∠D = 90°.
∴ ∠B + ∠D = 180°
Hence, ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral.
Again, ∠CAD and ∠CBD are angles in the same segment.
∴ ∠CAD = ∠CBD (Theorem 10.9)

Question 12.
Prove that a cyclic parallelogram is a rectangle.
Answer:
Suppose ABCD is a cyclic parallelogram.
ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral! .
∴ ∠A + ∠C = 180°
and ∠ B + ∠ D = 180° …….. (1)
ABCD is a parallelogram.
∴ ∠A = ∠C and ∠B = ∠D ……….. (2)
From (1) and (2),
∠A = ∠B = ∠C = ∠D = 90°
Thus, all the angles of quadrilateral ABCD are right angles.
Hence, ABCD is a rectangle.
Thus, a cyclic parallelogram is a rectangle.
