Test: Geometry- 3 - Question 1

The line AB is 6 m, in length and is tangent to the inner of the two concentric circles at point C. It is known that the radii of the two circles are integers. The radiusof the outer circle is-------, where A and B are points on the outer circle.

Detailed Solution for Test: Geometry- 3 - Question 1

Let the radius of the inner circle be r1 and the radius of the outer circle be r2. The length of the tangent from a point on the outer circle to the inner circle is given by:
AC2 = AB2 - (r2 - r1)2
Given that AB = 6 m, and the line AB is tangent to the inner circle at C, by Pythagoras theorem:
r22 = r12 + 32
Since the radii are integers, solving this gives r1 = 3 m and r2 = 5 m. Therefore, the radius of the outer circle is 5 m.

Test: Geometry- 3 - Question 5

In any quadrilateral ABCD, the diagonal AC and BD intersect at a point X. If E, F, G and H are the midpoints of AX, BX, CX and DX respectively, then what is the ratio of (EF + FG + GH + GE) to (AD + DC + CB + BA)?

Detailed Solution for Test: Geometry- 3 - Question 5

A midpoint is a point on a line segment equally distant from the two endpoints. The Midpoint Theorem is used to make a bold statement regarding triangle sides and their lengths. Given a triangle, if we connect two sides with a line segment, and this line segment joins each of the two sides at the centers, or midpoints of each side, we can know two very important aspects about the triangle and the relationships between the sides.

Test: Geometry- 3 - Question 12

Three horses are grazing within a semi-circular field. In the diagram given below, AB is the diameter of the semi-circular field with centre at O. Horses are tied up at P, R and S such that PO and RO are the radii of semi-circles with centres at P and R respectively and S is the centre of the circle touching the two semi-circles with diameters AO and OB. The horses tied at P and R can graze within the respective semi-circle and the horse tied at S can graze within the circle centered at S. The percentage of the area of the semi-circles with diameter AB that cannot be grazed by the horses is nearest to
