NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 10 - Chapter 10 - Circles (II),

Exercise 10.5

1. In Fig. 10.36, A,B and C are three points on a circle with centre O such that ∠BOC = 30° and ∠AOB = 60°. If D is a point on the circle other than the arc ABC, find ∠ADC.

Class IX, Mathematics, NCERT, CBSE, Questions and Answer, Q and A, Important


Answer

Here,
∠AOC = ∠AOB + ∠BOC
⇒ ∠AOC = 60° + 30°
⇒ ∠AOC = 90°
We know that angle subtended by an arc at centre is double the angle subtended by it any point on the remaining part of the circle.
∠ADC = 1/2∠AOC = 1/2 × 90° = 45°

2. A chord of a circle is equal to the radius of the circle. Find the angle subtended by the chord at a point on the minor arc and also at a point on the major arc.

Answer

Class IX, Mathematics, NCERT, CBSE, Questions and Answer, Q and A, Important

Given,
AB is equal to the radius of the circle.
In ΔOAB,
OA = OB = AB = radius of the circle.
Thus, ΔOAB is an equilateral triangle.
∠AOC = 60°
also,
∠ACB = 1/2 ∠AOB = 1/2 × 60° = 30°
ACBD is a cyclic quadrilateral,
∠ACB + ∠ADB = 180° (Opposite angles of cyclic quadrilateral)
⇒ ∠ADB = 180° - 30° = 150°
Thus, angle subtend by the chord at a point on the minor arc and also at a point on the major arc are 150° and 30° respectively.


3. In Fig. 10.37, ∠PQR = 100°, where P, Q and R are points on a circle with centre O. Find ∠OPR. 

Class IX, Mathematics, NCERT, CBSE, Questions and Answer, Q and A, Important
Answer

Reflex ∠POR = 2 × ∠PQR = 2 × 100° = 200°
∴ ∠POR = 360° - 200° = 160°
In ΔOPR,
OP = OR (radii of the circle)
∠OPR = ∠ORP
Now,
∠OPR + ∠ORP +∠POR = 180° (Sum of the angles in a triangle)
⇒ ∠OPR + ∠OPR + 160° = 180°
⇒ 2∠OPR = 180° -  160°
⇒ ∠OPR = 10°

4. In Fig. 10.38, ∠ABC = 69°, ∠ ACB = 31°, find ∠BDC.

NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 10 - Chapter 10 - Circles (II),

Answer

∠BAC = ∠BDC (Angles in the segment of the circle)
In ΔABC,
∠BAC + ∠ABC + ∠ACB = 180° (Sum of the angles in a triangle)
⇒ ∠BAC + 69° + 31° = 180°
⇒ ∠BAC = 180° - 100°
⇒ ∠BAC = 80°
Thus, ∠BDC = 80°

5. In Fig. 10.39, 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°. Find ∠ BAC.

Class IX, Mathematics, NCERT, CBSE, Questions and Answer, Q and A, Important

Answer

∠BAC = ∠CDE (Angles in the segment of the circle)
In ΔCDE,
∠CEB = ∠CDE + ∠DCE (Exterior angles of the triangle)
⇒ 130° = ∠CDE + 20°
⇒ ∠CDE = 110°
Thus, ∠BAC = 110°

6. ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral whose diagonals intersect at a point E. If ∠DBC = 70°, ∠BAC is 30°, find ∠BCD. Further, if AB = BC, find ∠ECD.

 Answer

Class IX, Mathematics, NCERT, CBSE, Questions and Answer, Q and A, Important

For chord CD,
∠CBD = ∠CAD (Angles in same segment)
∠CAD = 70°
∠BAD = ∠BAC + ∠CAD = 30° + 70° = 100°
∠BCD + ∠BAD = 180°        (Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral)
⇒ ∠BCD + 100° = 180°
⇒ ∠BCD = 80°
In ΔABC
AB = BC (given)
∠BCA = ∠CAB (Angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle)
∠BCA = 30°
also, ∠BCD = 80°
∠BCA + ∠ACD = 80°
⇒ 30° + ∠ACD = 80°
∠ACD = 50°
∠ECD = 50°

7. If diagonals of a cyclic quadrilateral are diameters of the circle through the vertices of the quadrilateral, prove that it is a rectangle.

 Answer

Let ABCD be a cyclic quadrilateral and its diagonal AC and BD are the diameters of the circle through the vertices of the quadrilateral.

Class IX, Mathematics, NCERT, CBSE, Questions and Answer, Q and A, Important

∠ABC = ∠BCD = ∠CDA = ∠DAB = 90° (Angles in the semi-circle)
Thus, ABCD is a rectangle as each internal angle is 90°.

8. If the non-parallel sides of a trapezium are equal, prove that it is cyclic.

 Answer

Given,
ABCD is a trapezium where non-parallel sides AD and BC are equal.
Construction,
DM and CN are perpendicular drawn on AB from D and C respectively.
To prove,
ABCD is cyclic trapezium.

Class IX, Mathematics, NCERT, CBSE, Questions and Answer, Q and A, Important

Proof:
In ΔDAM and ΔCBN,
AD = BC (Given)
∠AMD = ∠BNC (Right angles)
DM = CN (Distance between the parallel lines)
ΔDAM ≅ ΔCBN by RHS congruence condition.
Now,
∠A = ∠B by CPCT
also, ∠B + ∠C = 180° (sum of the co-interior angles)
⇒ ∠A + ∠C = 180°
Thus, ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral as sum of the pair of opposite angles is 180°.

9. Two circles intersect at two points B and C. Through B, two line segments ABD and PBQ are drawn to intersect the circles at A, D and P, Q respectively (see Fig. 10.40). Prove that ∠ACP = ∠QCD.

Class IX, Mathematics, NCERT, CBSE, Questions and Answer, Q and A, Important

Answer

Chords AP and DQ are joined.
For chord AP,
∠PBA = ∠ACP (Angles in the same segment) --- (i)
For chord DQ,
∠DBQ = ∠QCD (Angles in same segment) --- (ii)
ABD and PBQ are line segments intersecting at B.
∠PBA = ∠DBQ (Vertically opposite angles) --- (iii)
By the equations (i), (ii) and (iii),
∠ACP = ∠QCD

10. If circles are drawn taking two sides of a triangle as diameters, prove that the point of intersection of these circles lie on the third side.

 Answer

Given,Two circles are drawn on the sides AB and AC of the triangle ΔABC as diameters. The circles intersected at D.

Construction,AD is joined.

To prove,D lies on BC. We have to prove that BDC is a straight line.

Class IX, Mathematics, NCERT, CBSE, Questions and Answer, Q and A, Important

Proof:
∠ADB = ∠ADC = 90° (Angle in the semi circle)
Now,
∠ADB + ∠ADC = 180°
⇒ ∠BDC is straight line.
Thus, D lies on the BC.

11. ABC and ADC are two right triangles with common hypotenuse AC. Prove that ∠CAD = ∠CBD.

 Answer


Given,
AC is the common hypotenuse. ∠B = ∠D = 90°.
To prove,
∠CAD = ∠CBD
Class IX, Mathematics, NCERT, CBSE, Questions and Answer, Q and A, Important

Proof:
Since, ∠ABC and ∠ADC are 90°. These angles are in the semi circle. Thus, both the triangles are lying in the semi circle and AC is the diameter of the circle.
⇒ Points A, B, C and D are concyclic.
Thus, CD is the chord.
⇒ ∠CAD = ∠CBD (Angles in the same segment of the circle)

12. Prove that a cyclic parallelogram is a rectangle.

 Answer

Given,
ABCD is a cyclic parallelogram.
To prove,
ABCD is rectangle.

Class IX, Mathematics, NCERT, CBSE, Questions and Answer, Q and A, Important

Proof:
∠1 + ∠2 = 180° (Opposite angles of a cyclic parallelogram)
also, Opposite angles of a cyclic parallelogram are equal.
Thus,
∠1 = ∠2
⇒ ∠1 + ∠1 = 180°
⇒ ∠1 = 90°
One of the interior angle of the paralleogram is right angled. Thus, ABCD is a rectangle.

FAQs on NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 10 - Chapter 10 - Circles (II),

1. What are the properties of a circle?
Ans. A circle is a closed curve formed by all the points in a plane that are equidistant from a fixed point called the center. The properties of a circle include: - All radii of a circle are congruent, which means they have the same length. - The distance around a circle, known as the circumference, is directly proportional to its radius. The formula to calculate the circumference is C = 2πr, where r is the radius. - The longest distance across a circle, passing through the center, is called the diameter. The diameter is always twice the length of the radius. - The ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter is always constant and is denoted by the symbol π (pi), approximately equal to 3.14159.
2. How to find the area of a circle?
Ans. The area of a circle can be calculated using the formula A = πr^2, where A is the area and r is the radius of the circle. To find the area, square the radius and multiply it by the value of π (pi), which is approximately 3.14159. The resulting value will be the area of the circle, expressed in square units.
3. What is the relationship between the radius and the tangent of a circle?
Ans. In a circle, the radius and the tangent are perpendicular to each other at the point of tangency. This means that the radius of a circle is always perpendicular to the tangent line drawn to the circle at the point where they intersect. The tangent line touches the circle at only one point, whereas the radius extends from the center of the circle to any point on its circumference.
4. How can we prove that the tangents drawn to a circle from an external point are equal in length?
Ans. To prove that the tangents drawn to a circle from an external point are equal in length, we can use the theorem known as the Tangent-Secant Theorem. According to this theorem, if a tangent and a secant are drawn from an external point to a circle, then the square of the length of the tangent is equal to the product of the lengths of the secant and its external segment. Since the length of the tangent is equal to the radius of the circle, we can equate the two secant lengths using this theorem and prove their equality.
5. Can two circles intersect at more than two points?
Ans. No, two circles can intersect at a maximum of two points. When two circles intersect, they share these two points in common. These points of intersection are determined by the radii of the circles, and their number cannot exceed two. If the circles do not intersect at all, they are called disjoint circles. If one circle is completely contained within the other, they are called concentric circles.
