Theorem on Chords Question 1:
Two chords AB and CD of a circle meet inside the circle at point P. If AP = 12 cm, AB = 20 cm and CP = 16 cm, then CD = ?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Theorem on Chords Question 1 Detailed Solution
Calculation:
As per the question,
PB = AB - AP
⇒ 20 - 12 = 8cm
As we know
PA × PB = PD × PC
⇒ 12 × 8 = PD × 16
⇒ PD = 6
Then CD = PD + PC
⇒ 16 + 6 = 22 cm
∴ The correct option is 1
Theorem on Chords Question 2:
In a circle, two chords MN and PQ intersect at O. If MO = 9 cm, ON = 5 cm and OQ = 6 cm, then the value of OP (in cm) is:
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Theorem on Chords Question 2 Detailed Solution
Given:
MO = 9 cm
ON = 5 cm
OQ = 6 cm
Formula Used:
In a circle, if two chords MN and PQ intersect at O, then: MO × ON = OQ × OP
Calculation:
Using the formula, MO × ON = OQ × OP:
⇒ 9 × 5 = 6 × OP
⇒ 45 = 6 × OP
⇒ OP = 45 / 6
⇒ OP = 7.5 cm
The value of OP is 7.5 cm.
Theorem on Chords Question 3:
In a circle of radius 5√13 cm, a chord is at a distance of 10 cm from the centre of the circle. Find the length (in cm) of the chord.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Theorem on Chords Question 3 Detailed Solution
Given:
Radius of the circle = 5√13 cm
Distance of the chord from the centre = 10 cm
Formula Used:
Length of the chord = 2 × √(radius2 - distance from centre2)
Calculation:
Radius = 5√13 cm
Distance from centre = 10 cm
⇒ Length of the chord = 2 × √((5√13)2 - 102)
⇒ Length of the chord = 2 × √(325 - 100)
⇒ Length of the chord = 2 × √225
⇒ Length of the chord = 2 × 15
⇒ Length of the chord = 30 cm
The length of the chord is 30 cm.
Theorem on Chords Question 4:
A pair of straight lines from an external point F intersects a circle at A and B (FA < FB), and touches the circle at C. O is the centre of the circle. Given that ∠ACF = 50º and ∠AFC = 30º, find ∠AOB.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Theorem on Chords Question 4 Detailed Solution
Given:
A pair of straight lines from an external point F intersects a circle at A and B (FA
∠ACF = 50º
∠AFC = 30º
Calculation:
Given ∠ACF = 50º
In \(\triangle \)ACF:
∠ACF = 50º, ∠AFC = 30º
So, ∠CAF = 180º - (50º + 30º) --- Sum of all angles of a triangle is 180º
In \(\triangle \)OAC:
∠OCA = 90º - ∠ACF ------ (Radius is normal to tangent)
∠OCA = 90º - 50º = 40º
∠OCA = ∠OAC ---(Angle opposite to radius are equal in a triangle)
So, ∠OAC = 40º
∠AOC = 180º - (40º + 40º) = 100º
∠OAB = 180º - (∠OAC + ∠CAF) ---- (Sum of all angle on a straight line is 180º)
∠OAB = 180º - (40º + 100º)
∠OAB = 40º
In \(\triangle \)OAB:
∠OAB = ∠OBA --- (Angle opposite to radius are equal in a triangle)
So, ∠OBA = 40º
∠AOB = 180º - (∠OAB + ∠OBA) --- (Sum of all angles of a triangle is 180º)
∠AOB = 180º - (40º + 40º) = 100º
The correct answer is option 3.
Theorem on Chords Question 5:
In the given figure, O is the centre of the circle and ∠AOC = 140°. Find ∠ABC.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Theorem on Chords Question 5 Detailed Solution
Given :
O is the centre of the circle
∠AOC =140°
Calculation:
O is the centre of the circle
Take a point D in remaining arc
∠AOC = 140°
∠AOC = 2∠ADC ( Angle formed by chord at centre = twice angle formed in same arc segment)
⇒ 140° = 2∠ADC
⇒ ∠ADC = 70°
ABCD will be a cyclic quadrilateral
Sum of opposite angles of cyclic quadrilateral = 180°
⇒ ∠ABC + ∠ADC= 180°
⇒ 70° + ∠ABC = 180°
⇒ ∠ABC = 110°
∴ Option 2 is the correct answer.
Theorem on Chords Question 6:
In a circle with center O, an arc ABC subtends an angle of 138º at the center of the circle. The chord AB is produced to a point P. Then, the measure of ∠CBP is:
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Theorem on Chords Question 6 Detailed Solution
Given:
The angle subtended by arc ABC at the center of the circle = 138°.
Chord AB is produced to a point P, and we need to find ∠CBP.
Formula used:
The angle subtended by an arc at the center of a circle is twice the angle subtended by the same arc at the circle's circumference.
Calculation:
Let ∠AQC be the angle subtended by arc ABC at the circle's circumference.
⇒ ∠AOC = 2 × ∠AQC
⇒ ∠AQC = 1/2 × ∠AOC = 1/2 × 138° = 69°
Now, in the cyclic quadrilateral ABQC, the exterior angle ∠CBP is equal to the interior opposite angle ∠AQC.
⇒ ∠CBP = ∠AQC = 69°
∴ The measure of ∠CBP is 69°.
Theorem on Chords Question 7:
AB and CD are two parallel chords drawn in a circle with centre O. The distance between the two chords is 21 cm. If the lengths of AB and CD are 24 cm and 18 cm, respectively, then the radius of the circle is equal to:
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Theorem on Chords Question 7 Detailed Solution
Given:
AB = 24 cm & CD = 18 cm
Distance between chords = 21 cm
Calculations:
Let AO and CO be the radius of circle,
In Δ APO,
AO2 = AP2 + OP2 = 122 + x2 = 144 + x2
In Δ CQO,
CO2 = CQ2 + OQ2 = 92 + (21 - x)2 = 81 + (21 - x)2
Since, AO and CO are the radius of the circle, So
AO = CO
⇒ AO2 = CO2
⇒ 144 + x2 = 81 + (21 - x)2
⇒ 144 + x2 = 81 + 212 + x2 - 2 × 21 × x
⇒ 144 = 81 + 441 - 42x
⇒ 42x = 522 - 144
⇒ x = 378 / 42 = 9 cm
So, AO2 = 144 + x2 = 144 + 92 = 144 + 81 = 225
⇒ AO = √225 = 15 cm
Hence, the radius of circle = AO = 15 cm
∴ The correct answer is option (1).
Theorem on Chords Question 8:
In the given figure, 'G' is the centre of the circle. Find the angle ACB when ∠AGB = 132°
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Theorem on Chords Question 8 Detailed Solution
Given:
The angle subtended by a chord on the major arc of a circle is 132°.
Concept used:
The angle subtended by an arc at the centre is double the angle subtended by it at any point on the remaining part of the circle.
Calculation:
The major arc for the AB chord is ACB.
∠AGB = 132°
According to the concept,
∠AGB = 2 × ∠ACB
⇒ ∠ACB = 132°/2
⇒ ∠ACB = 66°
The angle ACB is 66°
Theorem on Chords Question 9:
A line cuts two concentric circles. The length of chords formed by this line on the circles is 6 cm and 18 cm. Find the difference in the squares of the radii of two circles.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Theorem on Chords Question 9 Detailed Solution
Given:
Length of chord on both circles is 6 cm and 18 cm.
Concept used:
Pythagoras theorem.
Calculation:
Let the radii of the smaller circle and the bigger circle be r1 and r2.
In ΔOAC
OC2 = OA2 + AC2
⇒ r12 - AC2 = OA2 ....(1)
In ΔOAB
OB2 = OA2 + AB2
⇒ r22 - AB2 = OA2 ....(2)
From the first equation and the second equation,
r12 - 9 = r22 - 81
⇒ r22- r12 = 81 - 9 = 72
∴ The required difference in the square is 72 cm2.
Theorem on Chords Question 10:
Two concentric circles are drawn with radii 20 cm and 16 cm. What will be the length of a chord of the larger circle which is tangent to the smaller circle?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Theorem on Chords Question 10 Detailed Solution
Given:
Bigger circle radius(R) = 20 cm
Smaller circle radius(r) = 16 cm
Formula Used:
(Hypotenuse)2 = (Base)2 + (Perpendicular)2
Calculations:
As BOC is an right-angled triangle at C
by Pythagoras theorem,
⇒ (BO)2 = (CO)2 + (BC)2
⇒ (20)2 = (16)2 + (BC)2
⇒ 400 = 256 + BC2
⇒ BC = \(\sqrt{400 - 256}\)
⇒ BC = \(\sqrt{144}\)
⇒ BC = 12 cm
When a line from centre fall on chord, It divide it into 2 equal parts
⇒ AB = 2BC = 2(12) = 24 cm
⇒ Hence, The length of the chord is 24 cm
