Practice Set 6.1
Question 1.Distance of chord AB from the center of a circle is 8 cm. Length of the chord AB is 12 cm. Find the diameter of the circle.
Answer:
Given that OP = 8 cm
And AB = 12 cm
We know that a perpendicular drawn from the center of a circle on its chord bisects
the chord.
∴ AP = PB = 6 cm
In the right angled ΔOAP using Pythagoras theorem,
⇒ OA2 = OP2 + AP2
⇒ OA2 = 82 + 62
⇒ OA2 = 64 + 36
⇒ OA2 = 100
⇒ OA = 10cm
So, the diameter of the circle is (2×10) = 20cm (Diameter = 2×Radius).
Question 2.
Diameter of a circle is 26 cm and length of a chord of the circle is 24 cm. Find the distance of the chord from the center.
Answer:
Given that diameter = 26cm
Radius = Diameter / 2 = 26 /2 = 13cm
So, OA = 13cm
And AB = 24 cm
We know that a perpendicular drawn from the center of a circle on its chord bisects
the chord.
∴ AP = PB = 12 cm
In the right angled ΔOAP using Pythagoras theorem,
⇒ OA2 = OP2 + AP2
⇒ 132 = OP2 + 122
⇒ 169 = OP2 + 144
⇒ OP2 = 25
⇒ OP = 5cm
So, the distance of chord from the center is 5cm.
Question 3.
Radius of a circle is 34 cm and the distance of the chord from the center is 30 cm, find the length of the chord.
Answer:
Given that
Radius = 34cm
So, OA = 34cm
And OP = 30 cm
We know that a perpendicular drawn from the center of a circle on its chord bisects
the chord.
∴ AP = PB,
AB = 2PB
In the right angled ΔOAP using Pythagoras theorem,
⇒ OA2 = OP2 + AP2
⇒ 342 = 302 + AP2
⇒ 1156 = 900 + AP2
⇒ AP2 = 256
⇒ AP = 16cm
So, the length of chord is 16× 2 = 32cm (AB = 2AP)
Question 4.
Radius of a circle with center O is 41 units. Length of a chord PQ is 80 units, find the distance of the chord from the center of the circle.
Answer:
Given that
Radius = 41 units
So, OP = 41 units
And PQ = 80 units
We know that a perpendicular drawn from the center of a circle on its chord bisects
the chord.
∴ PM = MQ = 40 cm
In the right angled ΔOAP using Pythagoras theorem,
⇒ OP2 = OM2 + PM2
⇒ 412 = OM2 + 402
⇒ 1681 = OM2 + 1600
⇒ OM2 = 81
⇒ OM = 9 units
So, the distance of chord from the center is 9 units.
Question 5.
In figure 6.9, center of two circles is O. Chord AB of bigger circle intersects the smaller circle in points P and Q. Show that AP = BQ
Answer:
We draw a perpendicular on chord AB from O.
We know that a perpendicular drawn from the center of a circle on its chord bisects
the chord.
Therefore,
AM = MB …….(1)
OM is also perpendicular to chord PQ of smaller circle.
Therefore,
PM = MQ ………….(2)
Subtracting (2) from (1)
AM-PM = MB-MQ
⇒ AP = BQ
Hence Proved.
Question 6.
Prove that, if a diameter of a circle bisects two chords of the circle then those two chords are parallel to each other.
Answer:
We draw a circle with center O and AB, CD are the chords of this circle. Diameter PQ bisects AB and CD at M and N respectively.
We know that the line from the center bisecting the chord is perpendicular to the chord.
Therefore,
∠ OMA = ∠ OMB = 90°
Also, ∠ ONC = ∠ OND = 90°
∠ OMA + ∠ ONC = 90° + 90° = 180°
Hence the two chords, AB and CD are parallel to each other.
Practice Set 6.2
Question 1.Radius of circle is 10 cm. There are two chords of length 16 cm each. What will be the distance of these chords from the center of the circle?
Answer:
Given radius of circle is 10cm
OA = OD = 10cm
AB = CD = 16cm
We know that a perpendicular drawn from the center of a circle on its chord bisects
the chord.
CQ = QD = 8cm
In right angled ΔOQD using the Pythagoras theorem
OD2 = OQ2 + QD2
102 = OQ2 + 82
100 = OQ2 + 64
OQ2 = 36
OQ = 6cm
Therefore the chord CD is at 6cm from the center.
We know that Congruent chords of a circle are equidistant from the center of the circle.
As AB and CD are equal in length, they are equidistant.
∴ OP = OQ = 6cm
Question 2.
In a circle with radius 13 cm, two equal chords are at a distance of 5 cm from the center. Find the lengths of the chords.
Answer:
Given radius of circle is 13cm
OA = OD = 13cm
OQ = OP = 16cm
We know that a perpendicular drawn from the centre of a circle on its chord bisects
the chord.
CQ = QD
CD = 2×QD
In right angled ΔOQD using the Pythagoras theorem
OD2 = OQ2 + QD2
132 = 52 + QD2
169 = 25 + QD2
QD2 = 144
QD = 12cm
Therefore the length of chord CD = 2×12 = 24cm
We know that The chords of a circle equidistant from the center of a circle are congruent
As AB and CD are equidistant, they are equal in length.
∴ AB = CD = 24cm
Question 3.
Seg PM and seg PN are congruent chords of a circle with center C. Show that the ray PC is the bisector of ∠NPM.
Answer:
Given that PM = PN
We know that Congruent chords of a circle are equidistant from the center of the circle.
Therefore, AC = CB ………………(1)
Also,
A perpendicular drawn from the centre of a circle on its chord bisects
the chord.
CB bisects PN as PB = BN,
Similarly, CA bisects PM as PA = AM.
In ΔAPC and ΔBPC,
∠CAP = ∠ CBP = 90°
PC = PC (common side)
AC = CB (From eq (1))
∴ ΔAPC≅ ΔBPC (RHS congruence)
∴ ∠ APC = ∠ BPC (by CPCT)
Hence proved that PC is the bisector of ∠ NPM.
