segments is equal.
Theorem: If a chord and a tangent
intersect externally, then the product of
the lengths of the segment of the chord
is equal to the square of the length of
the tangent from the point of contact to
the point of intersection.

Q1. In the given figure, diameter AB and
chord CD of a circle meet at P. PT is a
tangent to the circle at T.
CD = 7.8 cm, PD = 5 cm, PB = 4 cm.
Find
(i) AB.
(ii) the length of tangent PT.
Solution :
(i) PA = AB + BP = (AB + 4) cm

PC = PD + CD = 5 + 7.8 = 12.8 cm

As PA x PB = PC x PD

(AB + 4) x 4 = 12.8 x 5

AB + 4 = (12.8 x 5)/ 4

AB + 4 = 16

Hence, AB = 12 cm

(ii) As we know,

PT2 = PC x PD

PT2 = 12.8 x 5 = 64

Thus, PT = 8 cm
Q2. In the following figure, PQ is the
tangent to the circle at A, DB is a diameter
and O is the centre of the circle. If ∠ADB =
30º and ∠CBD = 60º; calculate:
i) ∠QAB
ii) ∠PAD
iii) ∠CDB
Solution :
(i) Given, PAQ is a tangent and AB is the chord

∠QAB = ∠ADB = 300 [Angles in the alternate

segment]

(ii) OA = OD [radii of the same circle]

So, ∠OAD = ∠ODA = 300

But, as OA ⊥ PQ

∠PAD = ∠OAP – ∠OAD = 900 – 300 = 600

(iii) As BD is the diameter, we have

∠BCD = 900 [Angle in a semi-circle]

Now in ΔBCD,

∠CDB + ∠CBD + ∠BCD = 1800

∠CDB + 600 + 900 = 1800

Thus, ∠CDB = 1800 – 1500 = 300

Q3. AB is diameter and AC is a chord of a
circle with centre O such that angle
BAC=30º. The tangent to the circle at C
intersects AB produced in D. Show that
BC = BD.
Solution :
Join OC.

∠BCD = ∠BAC = 300 [Angles in the alternate segment]

It’s seen that, arc BC subtends ∠DOC at the center of the circle and
∠BAC at the remaining part of the circle.

So, ∠BOC = 2∠BAC = 2 x 300 = 600

Now, in ΔOCD

∠BOC or ∠DOC = 600

A
0
∠OCD = 90 [OC ⊥ CD]

∠DOC + ∠ODC = 900

∠ODC = 900 – 600 = 300

Now, in ΔBCD

As ∠ODC or ∠BDC = ∠BCD = 300

Therefore, BC = BD
Q4. ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral in
which BC is parallel to AD, angle ADC =
1100 and angle BAC = 500 . Find angle DAC
and angle DCA.
Solution :
Given, ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral in which AD || BC
And, ∠ADC = 1100 , ∠BAC = 50o
We know that,
∠B + ∠D = 1800 [Sum of opposite angles of a
quadrilateral]
∠B + 1100 = 1800
So, ∠B = 700
Now in ΔADC, we have
∠BAC + ∠ABC + ∠ACB = 1800
500 + 700 + ∠ACB = 1800
∠ACB = 1800 – 1200 = 600
And, as AD || BC we have
∠DAC = ∠ACB = 600 [Alternate angles]
Now in ΔADC,
∠DAC + ∠ADC + ∠DCA = 1800
600 + 1100 + ∠DCA = 1800
Thus,
∠DCA = 1800 – 1700 = 100

5 x PA = 3 x AB = 30 cm and PC = 4cm.

Q5. The diameter and a chord of circle
have a common end-point. If the length
of the diameter is 20 cm and the length of
the chord is 12 cm, how far is the chord
from the center of the circle?

A 5 cm

B 8 cm

C 10 cm

D 2 cm
Solution :

We have, AB as the diameter and AC as the chord.

Now, draw OL ⊥ AC
Since OL ⊥ AC and hence it bisects AC, O is the centre
of the circle.
Therefore, OA = 10 cm and AL = 6 cm
Now, in right ΔOLA
AO2 = AL2 + OL2 [By Pythagoras Theorem]
102 = 62 + OL2
OL2 = 100 – 36 = 64
OL = 8 cm
Therefore, the chord is at
a distance of 8 cm from the
centre of the circle.
