 3)If circles are drawn with each side of a triangle of sides 5 centimetres, 12 centimetres and 13 centimetres, as diameters, then with respect to each circle, where would be the third vertex?

Answer:


Let, ABC be a triangle with sides AB= 12cm BC = 5cm and AC = 13cm


Case 1: Let us draw a circle considering AB = 12cm as a diameter

Then, point C lies outside the circle.


Case 2: Let us draw a circle considering BC = 5cm as a diameter


Then point A lies outside the circle 


Case 3: Let us draw a circle considering AC = 13cm as a diameter


Then. Point B lies outside the circle

In the picture, a circle is drawn with a line as diameter and a smaller circle with half the line as to diameter. Prove that any chord of the larger circle through the point where the circles meet is bisected by the small circle. Circles

4) In the picture, a circle is drawn with a line as diameter and a smaller circle with half the line as to diameter. Prove that any chord of the larger circle through the point where the circles meet is bisected by the small circle. Answer : ∠ A is common to both the triangles. AO � 1  = BO 1  (the radii of the big circle) ∠ ACO 1   =   ∠ ADB = 90° Hence, in ΔACO 1 ∼   ΔADB, ⇒   Since, the ratio is always equal, we can say that   any chord of the larger circle through the point where the circles meet is bisected by the small circle.

2)For each diagonal of the quadrilateral shown, check whether the other two corners are inside, on or outside the circle with that diagonal as diameter. Ans   Case:1 As   ∠ A and   ∠ C are larger then 90° . Thus, point A and C lies inside the circle. (As seen above, point on a circle, such an angle is a right angle. Point outside the circle , such an angle is larger than 90° Point inside the circle, such an angle is smaller than 90° ) Case 2:   let us now draw a diagonal AC in quadrilateral ABCD Also, By angle sum property of quadrilateral ⇒   ∠ A +   ∠ B +   ∠ C +   ∠ D = 360° ⇒   105° +   ∠ B + 110° + 55° = 360° ⇒   ∠ B + 270° = 360° ⇒   ∠ B = 360° – 270° = 90° ● Draw a circle considering, AC as a diagonal. ● As   ∠ B is 90° . Thus, point B lies on the circle. As   ∠ D is smaller then 90°. Thus, point D lies outside the circle. (As seen above, point on a circle, such an angle is a right angle. Point outside the circle , such an angle is larger than 90° Point inside the circle, such a
