Center The fixed point is known as the centre of the circle. 2. Radi The distance from any point on the circle to the fixed point is the radius. Any line segment which joins the centre and any point on the circle is known as the Radius. Coinasives 3. Chord Any line segment made by joining any two points on the boundary of the circle is called Chord 4, Diameter Diameter is two times the radius. It is the longest chord on the circle which passes through the centre. All the diameters have the same length. 5. Circumference The length of the boundary of the circle is called the circumference of the circle. Arce 6. Arc ‘An arc is the part of the circle joining two points on the circumference of the circle. 7. Sector ‘An area made by an arc and two radii of the circle, by joining the centre to the endpoints of the arc is called Sector. 8. Segment Live courses SHARE (/PACKAGES/PACKAGES.ASPX) ‘ASK QUESTION (/FORUMS/)‘An area made by a chord and an arc of the circle is called Segment. The Relation between a Circle and a Line in a Plane There could be three situations when there are a line and a circle. ® A A B N Line Tangent Non-intersecti 1, Non-intersecting Line When a line and a circle have no common point then itis called a Non-intersecting Line with respect to the circle, 2. Secant When a line intersects a circle in such a way that there are two common points then that line is. called Secant. 3. Tangent When a line touches the circle in such a way that they have only one common point then that line is called a Tangent. That common point is called the point of contact. Tangent to a Circle All the tangents of a circle are perpendicular to the radius through the point of contact of that tangent. P Q OP is the radius of the circle and Q is any point on the line XY which is the tangent to the circle. As OP is the shortest line of all the distances of the point 0 to the points on XY. So OP is perpendicular to XY. Hence, OP. XY Example Find the radius of the circle in the given figuge, dbthedgngth of the tangent from point A which is 5 cm away fidAR&enter is 4c. _(/PACKAGES/PACKAGES.ASPX) [ASK QUESTION (/FORUMS/)Solution ‘As we know that the radius is perpendicular to the radius, so the AABO is a right angle triangle. Given, AO = 5 cm and AB = 4 cm We can use Pythagoras theorem here OA? = 0B? + AB? 0B? = OA? - AB? oB?=9 oB=3 So the radius of the given circle is 3 cm Number of Tangents from a Point on a Circle 1. There could be only one tangent at one point of contact. 2. Tangent could not be drawn from any point inside the circle. 3. There could be only two tangents to a circle from any point outside the circle The lengths of tangents drawn from an external ps int to a circle are equal. Here, two tangents are drawn from the external point C. As the tangent is perpendicular to the radius, it formed the right angle triangle. So AAOC and ABOC are congruent right angle triangle. Hence AC = BC. Example If two tangents PA and PB are drawn to a circle from a point P with centre O and OP is equal to the diameter of the circle then show that triangle APB is an equilateral triangle.

Therefore, OA 1 AP (Tangent is perpendicular to the radius through the point of contact) ZOAP = 90° In AOAP, OA sin ZOPA=— oa Gp 7 5p (OP = diameter) 1 So sin 2OPA = 5 = 30° Likewise, we can prove that 2OPB = 30° Now, ZAPB = ZOPA + ZOPB = 30° + 30° = 60° In APAB, PA = PB (length of the tangents from the external point is equal) ZPAB = ZPBA (Angles opposite to equal sides are equal) ZPAB + ZPBA + ZAPB = 180° (Due to angle sum property) ZPAB + ZPBA = 180° - 60° 22PAB = 120 ZPAB = 60° AS ZPAB = ZPBA = ZAPB = 60° Hence, PAB is an equilateral triangle. Example Find the length of AB in the given circle, which is the chord in the outer circle and tangent to the inner circle. The radius of the inner and outer circle is 6 cm and 10 cm respectively.

OB? = OT? + TB? TB? = OB? - OT? = 102-62 = 100-36 TB? = 64 TB= cm AB=TB+AT AB = 8 + 8(AT=BT) AB= 16cm View courses by asklITians me Design classes One-on-One in your own way with Top IlTians/Medical Professionals Click Here Know More — (/one-to-one-live-classes/) cours ae svdamplete Self Study RaskanecigplenReRALAsHstrY Leadigg Ssnenta,VAURE= 7 Know More — (/online-study-packages.aspx) Ge, Hacker Live 1-1 coding classes to unleash the Creator in your Child 7 rh Click Here Know More — (/juniorhacker/) a Complete All-in-One Study package Fully Loaded inside a Tablet!
