2. Revise statements of basic theorems on Circles.
3. To appreciate the theorems
a. Equal chords of a circle subtend equal angles at the centre.
b.If the angles subtended by the chords of a circle at the centre are equal, then the chords
are equal.
c. The perpendicular from the centre of a circle to a chord bisects the chord.
d.The line drawn through the centre of a circle to bisect a chord is perpendicular to the
chord
e. There is one and only one circle passing through three given non-collinear points
f. Equal chords of a circle (or of congruent circles) are equidistant from the centre (or centres).
g. Chords equidistant from the centre of a circle are equal in length.
h.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.
i. Angles in the same segment of a circle are equal.
j. If a line segment joining two points subtends equal angles at two other points lying on the
same side of the line containing the line segment, the four points lie on a circle (i.e. they are
concyclic).
k.The sum of either pair of opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral is 180º.
3. If the sum of a pair of opposite angles of a quadrilateral is 180º, the quadrilateral is cyclic.

MCQ:-

Q1. In Fig. ,A, B, C and D are four points on a circle. AC and BD intersect at a point E such that ∠BEC=130°

And ∠ ECD = 20°. Value of ∠ BAC is.


(a) 50° (b) 40° (c) 90° (d) 110°

Answer:- (d)

Short answer type question:-

Q1. In Fig, ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral in which AC and BD are its diagonals. If ∠ DBC = 55°
and ∠BAC = 45°, find ∠ BCD.
Solution : ∠ CAD = ∠ DBC = 55°

(Angles in the same segment) Therefore,


54
∠ DAB = ∠ CAD + ∠ BAC
= 55° + 45° = 100° But ∠ DAB + ∠ BCD = 180°
(Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral) So,
∠ BCD = 180° – 100° = 80°
Long answer type question:-
Q.1 The line drawn through the centre of a circle to bisect a chord is perpendicular to the chord.
Let AB be a chord of a circle with centre O and O is joined to the mid-point M of AB. You have to prove
that OM ⊥ AB. Join OA and OB . In triangles OAM and OBM,
OA = OB (Radii)
AM = BM (given)
OM = OM (Common)
Therefore, ∆ OAM ≅ ∆ OBM (By SSS rule)
This gives ∠ OMA = ∠ OMB = 90° (CPCT)
