Chapter 2 Circles Textbook Solution
Suppose we draw a circle with the bottom side of the triangles in the picture as diameter. Find out whether the top corner of each triangle is inside the circle, on the circle or outside the circle.
- Answer)
Angle of the first triangle =110°
As 110° > 90° the top comer will be inside the circle
Angle of second triangle = 90°
∴ The top comer will be on the circle.
Angle of the third triangle = 70°
70° > 90°
∴ The top comer will be outside the circle
For each diagonal of the quadrilateral shown, check whether the other two corners are inside, on or outside the circle with that diagonal as diameter
- Answer)
If circles are drawn with each side of a triangle of sides 5 centimeters, 12 centimeters and 13 centimeters, as diameters, then with respect to each circle, where would be the third vertex?
- Answer)
As the sides are 5, 12, 13 cm and also
52 + 122 = 25 + 144 = 169 = 132
∴ ABC is a right triangleTaking BC as diameter and drawing a circle, ∠A (<90°), A will be outside the circle.
Taking AB as diameter and drawing a circle ∠C (<90°) C will be outside the circle.
Taking AC as diameter and drawing a circle, ∠B = 90°, B will be on the circle.
In the picture, a circle is drawn with a line as diameter and a smaller circle with half the line as diameter. Prove that any chord of the larger circle through the point where the circles meet is bisected by the small circle.
- Answer)
∠ADO = ∠APB = 90°
(angle subtended by diameter is always 90°)
⇒ OD\\PBAO = OB (Radius of bigger circle)
(If in a triangle, the line drawn from midpoint of one side, is parallel to another side, then the line will bisect the third side)
Therefore AD = DP
(AB’s midpoint is ‘O’ and OD\\PB)
Use a calculator to determine up to two decimal places, the perimeter and the area of the circle in the picture.
- Answer)
The two circles in the picture cross each other at A and B. The points P and Q are the other ends of the diameters through A.
i. Prove that P, B, Q lie on a line.
ii. Prove that PQ is parallel to the line joining the centers of the circles and is twice as long as this line.
- Answer)
ii)
Prove that the two circles are drawn on the two equal sides of an isosceles triangle as diameters pass through the midpoint of the third side.
- Answer)
Prove that all four circles drawn with the sides of a rhombus as diameters pass through a common point.
Prove that this is true for any quadrilateral with adjacent sides equal, as in the picture.
- Answer)
ABCD is a rhombus so diameter are perpendicular bisectors.
∠AOD = 90°
O be on the circle having diameter AD.
∠AOB = 90°, therefore
O be on the circle having diameter AB.
∠BOC= 90°, therefore
O be on the circle having diameter BC
∠DOC= 90°, therefore
O be on the circle having diameter DC
O be the common point on the circle.
∠A0D = ∠AOB and
∠COD = ∠BOC and,
AD = AB,
AO be the common side.Δ AOD, Δ AOB are equal triangles.
OD = OB
Both the circles can passed through O.
A BCD is an isosceles triangle.
Those circles having diameters CD and BC are passing through midpoint of BD.
∴ O be common for the four circles. (Diameter)
A triangle is drawn by joining a point on a semicircle to the ends of the diameter. Then semicircles are drawn with the other two sides as diameter.
Prove that the sum of the areas of the blue and red crescents in the second picture is equal to the area of the triangle.
- Answer)
Area of triangle be A
Area of small crescent be ‘a’
Area of larger crescent be ‘b’
Area of semicircle excluding one crescent be ‘x’ and ‘y’.
Sides of the right triangle is p, q, r
Area of semicircle with diameter ‘r’ = Area of semicircle with diameter P + Area of semicircle with diameter q.
A + x + y = a + x + b + y
A = a + b
That is area of triangle is equal to two areas of crescents.

(AE = 6cm) Draw an arc having radius as AE and A as centre. Extend DA and mark the point F.Extend BA towards left. Mark G as AD = AG
Draw Δ GFB.Circum circle of Δ GFB meets AD at D.

Area = 5 x 3 = 15 sq cm.
Draw a semicircle of diameter AH.

- Answer)
Method 1

Draw a semicircle of diameter AE. Extend BC up to F. √5 is the side of the square BGHF.
BGHF is the required square.
Method 2
Draw a right-angled triangle of perpendicular sides 2 cm and 1cm.
Hypotenuse will be √5 cm. The area of the square ACDE is 5 cm2, because here we take the hypotenuse as side of the square.Method 3

In the picture, a line through the centre of a circle cuts a chord into two parts:
What is the radius of the circle?
- Answer)
The intersection may be with in the circle.
Chords AB & CD intersect at P i. e.,
PA × PB = PC × PD
(The intersection will be inside the circle)
4 × 6 = PC × (OP + OD)
24 = PC × (OP + OC)
24 = PC × (OP + OP + CP)
24 = PC × (5 + 5 + CP)
24 = PC × (10 + CP)
PC =2
Radius = PC + OP = 2 + 5 = 7cm
