 SOLUTIONS
SECTION – A
Ans 1. Take a point E on the remaining part of the circumference. Join EA and EC. Since the angle subtended by an
arc at the centre of a circle is twice the angle subtended at a point on the remaining part of the circumference, we
1 1
have ∠AEC = 2 ∠AOC = 2 × 130° = 65°
Now, ABCE is a cyclic quadrilateral whose side AB is produced to P.
⸫ ∠CBP = ∠AEC = 65° [∵ ext. ∠ of a cyclic quad. = int. opp. ∠]
Hence, ∠CBP = 65°.
Ans 2. Since ABEC is a cyclic quadrilateral.
⸫ ∠BAC + ∠BEC = 180° ⇒ ∠BAC = 180° – 100° = 80°
Now, ∠BAC = ∠BDC = y = 80° [Angles in the same segment] and since ABC is an isosceles triangle.
⸫ ∠ABC = ∠ACB = x
⸫ 2x + 80° = 180° [Angle sum property of a triangle]
⇒ 2x = 180° – 80° = 100° ⇒ x = 50°
Hence, x = 50° and y = 80°.
Ans 3. AB = AC ⇒ ∠ABC = ∠ACB …(i)
∠ADE = ∠ABC [Corresponding angles]
⇒ ∠ADE = ∠ACB [From (i)]
⇒ ∠ADE + ∠EDB
= ∠ACB + ∠EDB = ∠ACB + ∠EDB = 180° [∵ ∠ADE and ∠EDB form a linear pair]
⇒ BCED is cyclic. [⸫ Sum of a pair of opposite angles is 180°]
Ans 4. In ΔACF, side CF is produced to B.
⸫ ∠y = ∠1 + ∠3 ...(i) [ext. ∠ = sum of int. opp. angles]
In ΔAED, side ED is produced to B.
⸫ ∠1 + ∠x = ∠4 ...(ii)
From (i) and (ii), we have
∠1 + ∠x + ∠y = ∠1 + ∠3 + ∠4 ⇒ ∠x + ∠y = ∠3 + ∠4 = 2∠3 [∵ ∠4 = ∠3, angles in the same segment]
= ∠z [∵ ∠AOB = 2∠ACB]
Hence, ∠x + ∠y = ∠z.
Ans 5. Since OM ⊥ BC
1
⸫ BM = CM = 2 BC = 4 cm
1
Similarly, OM ⊥ AD ⇒ AM = DM = 2 AD = 6 cm
Now, AB = AM – BM = (6 – 4) cm = 2 cm
Also, CD = DM – CM = (6 – 4) cm = 2 cm
Hence, AB = CD = 2 cm

SECTION – B
Ans 1. Let O and O` be the centres of the circles of radii 10 cm and 8 cm
respectively and let PQ be their common chord.
We have, OP = 10 cm, O`P = 8 cm and PQ = 12 cm
1
⸫ PL = 2 PQ = 6 cm
In right ΔOLP, we have OP2 = OL2 + LP2 ⇒ OL = √𝑂𝑃2 − 𝐿𝑃2 = 8 cm
In right ΔO`LP, we have O`P2 = √𝑂` 𝑃2 − 𝐿𝑃2 ⇒ O`L = 5.29 cm
⸫ OO` = OL + LO` = (8 + 5.29) cm = 13.29 cm.
Ans 2. It is given that AS = SD = DA
Therefore, ΔASD is an equilateral triangle. OA = r = 20 m
Medians of equilateral triangle pass through the circumcentre (O) of the equilateral
triangle ASD. We also know that medians intersect each other in the ratio 2: 1. As
AB is the median of equilateral triangle ASD, we can write
𝑂𝐴 2
= 1 ⇒ OB = 10 m
𝑂𝐵
∴ AB = OA + OB = (20 + 10) m = 30 m
𝐴𝐷 2
In ΔABD, AD2 = AB2 + BD2 ⇒ AD2 = (30)2 + ( ) ⇒ AD = 20√3 m
2
Therefore, the length of the string of each phone will be 20√3 m.
Ans 3. We are given two circles with centres C1 and C2 which intersect each other at P and
Q. PR is a diameter of circle C1 and PS is a diameter of circle C2. We need to prove that R, Q and S are collinear.
⸫ PQR = 90° … [Angle in a semicircle]
and ∠PQS = 90° …[Angle in a semicircle]
⸫ ∠PQR + ∠PQS = 90° + 90° = 180°
⸫ RQS is a straight line.
Ans 4. We have, AB = AC and CE = BD
In Δs ABD and ACE, we have
AB = AC [Given]
∠ABD = ∠ACE [Angles in the same segment]
BD = CE [Given]
So, by SAS congruence criterion, we have ΔABD ≅ ΔACE ⇒ AD = AE (c.p.c.t.)
Ans 5. ABC is the given triangle and O is the centre of its circumcircle. Then the perpendicular bisector of BC
passes through O. It cuts the circle at P.
∠BOC = 2∠A … (i)
[Angle at the centre is twice the angle at the circumference]
OB = OC [Radii of the same circle]
and OD ⊥ BC
1
⇒ ∠BOD = ∠COD = 2 ∠BOC
⇒ ∠BOD = ∠COD = ∠A [From (i)]
∠A
Now, CP makes ∠A at the centre O. So, it will make 2 at A.
∠A
or, ∠CAP = 2
⇒ AP is the bisector of ∠A.
Ans 6. Since arc XY subtends ∠XPY at the centre and ∠XZY at a point Z in the remaining part of the circle.
⸫ ∠XPY = 2∠XZY ...(i)
Similarly, arc YZ subtends ∠YPZ at the centre and ∠YXZ at a point Y in the remaining part of the circle.
⸫ ∠YPZ = 2∠YXZ ...(ii)
Adding (i) and (ii), we get
∠XPY + ∠YPZ = 2∠XZY + 2∠YXZ ⇒ ∠XPZ = 2(∠XZY + ∠YXZ)
Ans 7. Here AB = 6 cm ⇒ AL = LB = 3B
CD = 12 cm ⇒ CM = MD = 6 cm
Also LM = 3 cm. Let OM x
In right triangle OLB,
OL2 + LB2 = OB2 [By Pythagoras theorem]
⇒ (3+x)2 + 32 = OB2 …(i)
Now in right OMD,
OM2 + MD2 = OD2
⇒ x2 + 62 = OB2 …(ii) (since OD = OB = radius)
From (i) & (ii), (3 +x)2 + 32 = x2 + 62
⇒ 9 +6x = 36 – 9 or x = 3.
From (i), OB2 = (3+3)2 + 32 = 36 + 9
OB = 3 cm.
Hence radius = 3 cm

SECTION – C
Ans 1. Given: A ΔABC in which AB = AC and a circle is drawn by taking AB as diameter which intersects the side
BC of triangle at D.
To prove: BD = DC
Construction: Join AD
Proof: Since angle in a semicircle is a right angle. Therefore, ∠ADB = 90°
∵ ∠ADB + ∠ADC = 180°
⇒ 90° + ∠ADC = 180°⇒ ∠ADC = 90°
Now, in ΔABD and ΔACD, we have
AB = AC [Given]
∠ADB = ∠ADC [Each equal to 90°]
and, AD = AD [Common]
⸫ ΔABD ≅ ΔACD [By RHS congruence]
⇒ BD = DC.
Ans 2. Given: A circle C (O, r) in which arc AB subtends ∠AOB at the centre and ∠ACB at any point C on the
remaining part of the circle.
To prove: ∠AOB = 2∠ACB, when 𝐴𝐵 ̂ is a minor arc or a semicircle.
Reflex ∠AOB = 2∠ACB, when 𝐴𝐵 ̂ is a major arc.
Construction: Join AB and CO. Produce CO to a point D outside the circle.
Proof: We know that when one side of a triangle is produced then the exterior angle so formed is equal to the sum of
the interior opposite angles.
⸫ ∠AOD = ∠OAC + ∠OCA
∠BOD = ∠OBC + ∠OCB
But, ∠OAC = ∠OCA [∵ OC = OA = r].
and ∠OBC = ∠OCB [∵ OC = OB = r].
⸫ ∠AOD = 2∠OCA and ∠BOD = 2∠OCB
Now, ∠AOD + ∠BOD = 2∠OCA + 2∠OCB
⇒ ∠AOB = 2(∠OCA + ∠OCB)
⇒ ∠AOB = 2∠ACB.
Ans 3. Draw OD ⊥ AB, OE ⊥ AC and join AO.
Let AC = 2x, then AE = CE = x
So, AB = 4x and AD = BD = 2x.
In ΔAOD, AO2 = AD2 + OD2 [By Pythagoras theorem]
⇒ AD2 = AO2 – OD2 ⇒ 4x2 = r2 – p2 … (i)
In ΔAOE, we have
AO2 = OE2 + AE2 ⇒ AE2 = AO2 – OE2 ⇒ x2 = r2 – q2 ⇒ 4x2 = 4r2 – 4q2 … (ii)
From (i) and (ii), we have
4r2 – 4q2 = r2 – p2 ⇒ 4q2 = p2 + 3r2.
Ans 3. Join OE. Since the line joining the centre of a circle to the mid-point of a chord is perpendicular to the chord,
we have OM ⊥ AB and ON ⊥ CD
⇒ ∠OMB = 90° and ∠OND = 90°
⇒ ∠OME = 90° and ∠ONE = 90°
Also, equal chords of a circle are equidistant from the centre.
⸫ OM = ON ..... (i)
Now, in ΔOME and ΔONE, we have
OM = ON [From (i)]
∠OME = ∠ONE [each equal to 90°]
OE = OE [common]
⸫ ΔOME ≅ ΔONE [by SAS congruence]
⇒ ME = NE [CPCT]
Thus, in quad. OMEN, we have OM = ON, ME = NE and ∠OME = ∠ONE = 90°
Hence, OMEN is a square. Proved.
