Circle Theorem

The document contains 5 problems involving circle theorems. Problem 1 asks to calculate the curved surface area of a tunnel segment modeled as a circular arc. Problem 2 involves finding angles related to two tangents drawn from an external point to a circle. Problem 3 calculates angles related to tangents and a chord of a circle where one angle is given as 70 degrees. Problem 4 uses parallel and tangent properties to find two angles. Problem 5 calculates three angles using properties of an inscribed angle, tangent, and central angle.
