SLC - Compulsory Math - Geometric Deduction

This document contains a collection of geometry problems involving properties of circles, triangles, quadrilaterals and other geometric shapes. It includes over 100 problems divided into 6 sections. The problems cover topics such as proving two figures have equal areas, lines being parallel or perpendicular, relationships between angles and segments, and applying properties of cyclic and other special quadrilaterals. The goal is to use logical reasoning and properties of shapes to prove statements are true based on given conditions in each diagrammatic problem.
