ABC is an isosceles triangle in which AB = AC. If D and E are the mid-points of AB and AC respectively. The point B, C, D, E are:
Verify mobile number to view the solution
As DE || BC, so, ∠ADE = ∠ABC
Also, ∠ABC = ∠ACB
∴ ∠ADE = ∠ACB (∵ AB = AC)
∴ ∠ADE + ∠EDB = 180°
⇒ ∠ACB + ∠EDB = 180°
Hence, B, C, D and E are concyclic.
S1 and S2 are two circles on a plane with radius 4 cm, and 2 cm, respectively and the distance between their centers is 3 cm. which one of the following statements is true?
OB = 4 cm
O’A = 2 cm
OO’ = 3 cm
As, OO’ ≠ OB + O’A
So, circle does not touch each other externally.
Also, OO’ ≠ OB – O’A
So, circle does not touch internally, hence they cut each other at two distinct points.
If two circles are such that the centre of one lies on the circumference of the other then the ratio of the common chord of the two circles to the radius of any one of the circles is:
Here let O, O’ be the centers of the circle.
As the centre of each lies on the circumference of the other, the two circles will have the same radius. Let it be r.
∴ OC = O’C = r / 2
∴ AC = r
AB = √ 3 r
Hence, = √ 3 r : r = √ 3 : 1
If ‘O’ is the centre of circle, then x is equal to
∠OAC = ∠OCA
2∠OAC = 80° (External angle of ∆OAC)
∠OAC = = 40°
⇒ x = 40°
If one angle of a cyclic trapezium is triple of the other, then the greater one measures:
Since ABCD is a cyclid trapezium then a cyclic trapezium being isosceles, so
∠DAB = ∠ABC and ∠ADC = ∠BCD
Let ∠DAB = x°
Then ∠BCD = 3x°
∴ x + 3x = 180° ⇒ x = 45°
∴ Largest angle = 3x = 3 × 45° = 135°
With the vertices of an DABC as centre three circles are described, each touching the other two circles externally. If the sides of the triangle are 9 cm, 7 cm and 6 cm. Then, the radius of the circle are
Let AB = 9 cm, BC = 7 cm, AC = 6 cm
Let x, y, z be radius of circles with centre A, B, C
x + y = 9, y + z = 7 and z + x = 6
∴ 2(x + y + z) = 22
Or (x + y + z) = 11
∴ z = 11 – 9 = 2 cm
In the given figure, ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral. AE is drawn parallel to CD and BA is produced. If ∠ABC = 92° and ∠FAE = 20°, then ∠BCD is equal to:
∠B + ∠D = 180°
⇒ ∠D = 180 – ∠B = 180° – 92° = 88°
∠DAE = ∠D = 88°
∠FAD = 88° + 20° = 108°
∠BCD = ∠FAD = 108°
⇒ ∠BCD = 108°
Consider the following statements
I. The opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary.
II. 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.
Which one of the following is correct in respect of the above statements?
I. It is true that the opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary.
II. It is also true that 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.
Hence, both statements are individually true, but neither statements implies to each other.
Through any given set of four points P, Q, R,S it is possible to draw:
Through four given points, we can draw at the most one circle.
Two circles touch each other internally. Their radiuses are 4 cm and 6 cm. what is the length of the longest chord of the outer circle which is outside the inner circle?
OA = Diameter of inner circle = 4 cm
And OB = AB – OA = 6 – 4 = 2 cm
PQ and AB are two chord of outer circle.
∴ OA × OB = OP × OQ
(∵ OP = OQ)
⇒ 4 × 2 = OP2 ⇒ OP = 2 √ 2 cm
∴ PQ = 2 × 2 √ 2 = 4 √ 2 cm
