1.
Construction: Join OP.
Proof: In \(\Delta\)OMP and \(\Delta\)ONP,
\(\angle\)OMP = \(\angle\)ONP = 90° (given)
OP =OP (common)
MP =NP (given)
\(\Delta\)OMP :;\(\Delta\)ONP (RHS)
\(\therefore\) OM=ON (c.p.c.t.)
\(\therefore\) AB =CD (chords equidistant from centre are equal)
2.
Given: OD \(\bot\)BC
Proof: In \(\Delta\)OBD and \(\Delta\)OCD
OB = OC (radii)
OD = OD (Common)
\(\angle\)ODB = \(\angle\)ODC (90°)
\(\Delta\)OBD \(\cong \) \(\angle\)OCD (RHS rule)
\(\angle\)BOD = \(\angle\)COD (c.p.c.t.) 1
But \(\angle\)BOC = 2\(\angle\)BOD = 2\(\angle\)BAC
\(\Rightarrow\) \(\angle\)BOD = \(\angle\)BAC

5.
Given: ABCD is a parallelogram. The circle through A, B and C intersects CD (produced, if necessary) at E.

To Prove: AE = AD.
Proof: In cyclic quadrilateral ABCE,
\(\angle AED+\angle ABC=180°\) ....(1)
| ∵ Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary.
Also, \(\angle ADE+\angle ADC=180°\)
I Linear Pair Axiom
But \(\angle ADC=\angle ABC\)
Opposite angles of a || gm
∴ \(\angle ADE+\angle ABC=180°\) ....(2)
From (1) and (2), we have
\(\angle AED+\angle ABC=\angle ADE+\angle ABC\)
⇒ \(\angle AED=\angle ADE\)
∴ In triangle ADE,
AE = AD
| ∵ Sides opposite to equal angles of a triangle are equal.
Hence Proved.
6.
Given: ABCD is a cyclic parallelogram.
To Prove: ABCD is a rectangle.

Proof: ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral
∴ \(\angle 1+\angle 2=180°\) ...(1)
| ∵ Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary
∵ ABCD is a parallelogram
∴ \(\angle 1=\angle 2\) ...(2)
| Opp. angles of a || gm
From (1) and (2),
\(\angle 1=\angle 2=90°\)
∴ || gm ABCD is a rectangle.
[A parallelogram with one of its angles 90° is a rectangle]
7.
Given: Circles are drawn with sides AB and AC of a triangle ABC as diameters. They intersect at a point D.
To Prove: D lies on the third side BC of \(\Delta \)ABC
Construction: Join AD

Proof: ∵ Circle drawn on AB as diameter intersects BC in D.
∴ \(\angle ADB=90°\)
| Angle in a semi-circle
But \(\angle ADB+\angle ADC=180°\)| Linear Pair Axiom
∴ \(\angle ADC=90°\)
Hence, the circle described on AC as diameter must pass through D.
Thus, the two circles intersect in D.
Now, \(\angle ADB+\angle ADC=180°\).
∴ Points B, D, C are collinear.
∴ D lies on BC.
8.
\(\angle CDB=\angle CAB\) | Angles in the same segment of a circle are equal
=40° .............(1)
\(\angle DBC=70°\) ..............(2)
In \(\Delta BCD\),

\(\angle BCD+\angle DBC+\angle CDB=180°\) | Sum of all angles of a triangle is 180°
⇒ \(\angle BCD+70°+40°=180°\)| Using (1) and (2)
⇒ \(\angle BCD+110°=180°\)
⇒ \(\angle BCD=180°-110°\)
⇒ \(\angle BCD=70°\) ............(3)
In \(\Delta ABC\),
AB=BC
∴ \(\angle BCA=\angle BAC\)| Angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are equal
=40° .........(4)
\(|\because \quad \angle BAC=30°\) (given)
Now, \(\angle BCD=70°\) | From (3)
\(\Rightarrow angle BCA+\angle ECD=70°\) | From (4)
\(\Rightarrow 40°+\angle ECD=70°\)
\(\Rightarrow \angle ECD=70°\)
\(\Rightarrow \angle ECD=70°-40°\)
\(\Rightarrow \angle ECD=30°\)
9.
\(\Rightarrow \)\(\angle CED+130°=180°\)
\(\Rightarrow \) \(\angle CED=180°-130°=50°\) ..........(1)
\(\angle ECD=20°\) .............(2)
In \(\Delta CED\),
\(\angle CED+\angle ECD+\angle CDE=180°\) | Sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180°
\(\Rightarrow \) 50°+20°+\(\angle CDE=180°\) | Using (1) and (2)
\(\Rightarrow \) \(70°\angle CDE=180°\)
\(\Rightarrow \) \(\angle CDE=180°\)-70°
\(\Rightarrow \) \(\angle CDE=110°\) ...........(3)
Now, \(\angle BAC=\angle CDE\)
| Angles in the same segment of a circle are equal=110°. |Using (3)
10.
In \(\Delta ABC\),
\(\angle BAC+\angle ABC+\angle ACB=180°\)
Sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180°
⇒ \(\angle BAC+69°+31°=180°\)
⇒ \(\angle BAC+100°=180°\)
⇒ \(\angle BAC=180°-100°=80°\) .........(1)
Now, \(\angle BDC=\angle BAC\)
Angles in the same segment of a circle are equal = 80°. Using (1)
11.
Let BD = x m

Then in right triangle ODB,
OB2 = OD2 + BD2
By Pythagoras Theorem
⇒ (20)2 = OD2 + x2
⇒ OD2= 400 - x2⇒ OD =\(\sqrt { 400-x^{ 2 } } \)
Again, area of equilateral triangle ABC
= Area of \(\Delta OBC\) + Area of \(\Delta OCA\) + Area of \(\Delta OAB\)
= 3 Area of \(\Delta OBC\)= 3\(\frac { \left( BC \right) \left( OD \right) }{ 2 } \)
\(=3x\sqrt { 400-x^{ 2 } } \) ....(2)
⇒ \(\sqrt { 3 } \sqrt { 400-x^{ 2 } } =x\)
Squaring both sides,
3(400 - x2) = x2
⇒ 1200 - 3x2 = x2
⇒ 4x2 = 1200 ⇒ x2 = 300
⇒ \(x=10\sqrt { 3 } \) ⇒ BD=\(10\sqrt { 3 } \)
⇒ \(2BD=20\sqrt { 3 } \) ⇒ \(BC=20\sqrt { 3 } \)
Hence, the length of string of each phone is \(20\sqrt { 3 } \) m.
12.
Given: A circle with centre O. Its two equal chords AB and CD intersect at E.
To prove: AE = DE and CE = BE.
Construction: Draw OM 丄 AB and ON 丄 CD join OE.
Proof: In \(\Delta OME\) and \(\Delta ONE\) ,
OM = ON
| ∵ Equal chords of a circle are equidistant from the centre
OE = OE I Common

∴\(\Delta OME\cong \Delta ONE\) | RHS Rule
∴ ME = NE I CPCT
⇒AM + ME = DN + NE
∵ \(AB=CD\Rightarrow \frac { 1 }{ 2 } AB=\frac { 1 }{ 2 } CD\Rightarrow AM=DN\)
⇒ AE = DE
⇒ AB - AE = CD - DE | ∵ AB=CD
⇒ B E= CE. | Given
13.

Let O and O' be the centres of circles of radii 5 cm and 3 cm respectively. Let PQ be the common chord of the two circles.
∵ 52 = 42 + 32
∴ OP2 = OO'2 + O'P2
⇒ \(\angle OO'P=90°\)
I By Converse of Pythagoras Theorem
⇒ O' lies on the common chord PQ.
∵ OO' 丄 PQ
∴ OO' bisects PQ
I The perpendicular drawn from the centre of a circle to a chord of it bisects the chord PQ.
∵ O' is the mid-point of PQ.
Therefore, length of the common chord
= PQ = 20'P
= 2 x 3 = 6 cm
