1. (a) 100°
Explanation:
Given, ∠ ABD = 70°, ∠ ADB = 30°
In △ADB, ∠ DAB + ∠ ADB + ∠ ABD = 180°
⇒ ∠ DAB + 30° + 70° = 180°
⇒ ∠ DAB = 180° - 100° = 80°
Since ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral.
∴ ∠ DAB + ∠ BCD = 180°
⇒ 80° + ∠ BCD =180° ⇒ ∠ BCD = 100°
2.
(d) 60°
Explanation:
Given, ∠ PQR = 150°
∴ Reflex ∠ POR = 2∠ PQR = 2(150°) = 300°
Now, ∠ POR = 360° - Reflex ∠ POR = 360° - 300° = 60° ...(i)
Also, OP = OR ⇒ ∠ OPR = ∠ ORP ...(ii) (Angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are
equal)
In △OPR, ∠ OPR + ∠ ORP + ∠ POR = 180°
⇒ 2∠ OPR + 60° = 180° [From (i) & (ii)]
⇒ 2∠ OPR = 120° ⇒ ∠ OPR = 60°
3.
(b) 41o
Explanation:
Here we have a cyclic quadrilateral PQRS with PR being a diameter of the circle. Let the
centre of this circle be O.
We are given that ∠ QPR = 67o and ∠ SPR = 72o.

So, we see that,

∠ QPS = ∠ QPR + ∠ RPS
= 67o + 72o
= 139o
In a cyclic quadrilateral, it is known that the opposite angles as supplementary.
∠ QPS + ∠ QRS = 180o
∠ QRS = 180o - ∠ QPS

∠ QRS= 180o - 139o = 41o

∠ QRS = 41o

4.
(c) 2√–5 cm
Explanation:
We will represent the given data in the figure.

We know that perpendicular drawn from the centre to the chord divides the chord into
two equal parts.
8
So, AM = MB = AB
2
= 2
= 4 cm.
Using Pythagoras theorem in the △AMO, ∠ OMA = 90∘
OM2 = AO2 - AM2
OM2= 62 - 42
OM2= 36 - 16
OM= √− −
20
OM= 2√–5 cm
5.
(b) 60o
Explanation:

As we know that equal chords make an equal angle at the center.

Therefore,
∠ AOB = ∠ BOC = ∠ COD
o o
∠ AOB + ∠ BOC + ∠ COD = 180 [Sum of Linear pair of angle is 180 ]
o
⇒ 3∠ AOB = 180
⇒ ∠ AOB = 60o
6.
(c) 3 : 8
Explanation:
The length of an arc subtending an angle θ in a circle of radius r is given by the formula,
θ
Length of the arc = 360∘
2πr
Here, it is given that the are subtends an angle of 135o with its centre. So the length of
the given arc in a circle with radius r is given as
135∘
Length of the arc = 360∘
2πr ......(1)
The circumference of the same circle with radius r = 2πr. ....(2)

The ratio between the lengths of the arc and the circumference of the circle will be
Lenght of the arc 135∘ (2πr) 135∘ 3
= ∘ = 360∘
= 8
[FROM (1) and (2)]
Cirrumference of the circle 360 (2πr)

RATIO = 3 : 8
7. ∠BCD = ∠BAD = 65∘ ∠s of the same segment are equal.
8. We have, ∠ AOB = 60∘
By degree measure theorem,
∠ AOB = 2 ∠ ACB
60∘ = 2∠ ACB
∠ ACB = 30∘
∴ x = 30∘ .
9. In triangle DAB, by angle sum property
∠ ADB + ∠ DAB + ∠ ABD = 180∘
32∘ + ∠ DAB + 50∘ = 180∘
∠ DAB = 98∘
Now, ∠ DAB + ∠ DCB = 180∘ (Opposite angle of cyclic quadrilateral)
98∘ + x = 180∘
x = 180∘ - 98∘
= 82∘ .
10. From the given figure, we have
OA = OC ............................(radii of the semi-circle)
∴ ∠ OCA = ∠ OAC ⇒ ∠ OCA = 20°
Also, we have
OB = OC ..........................(radii of the semi-circle)
∴ ∠ OCB = ∠ OBC
⇒ ∠ OCB = 30°
Now, ∠ ACB = ∠ OCA + ∠ OCB
⇒ ∠ ACB = 20° + 30° = 50°
∠ AOB = 2 ∠ ACB = 2 × 50° = 100°
11. In triangles ACD and QCP,
∠ A = ∠ P and ∠ Q = ∠ D [Angles in same segment]
∴ ∠ ACD = ∠ QCP [Third angles] ...(i)
Subtracting ∠ PCD from both the sides of eq. (i), we get,
∠ ACD - ∠ PCD = ∠ QCP - ∠ PCD
∠ ACP = ∠ QCD
Hence proved.
12. Let ABCD be a cyclic quadrilateral whose diagonals AC and BD intersect at O at right
angles.
Let OL ⊥ AB such that LO produced meets CD at M.

Then we have to prove that CM = MD

Clearly, ∠ 1 = ∠ 2 [Angles in the same segment]
=> ∠ 2 + ∠ 3 = 90° [∵ ∠ OLB = 90°]
=> ∠ 3 + ∠ 4 = 90° [∵ LOM is a straight line and ∠ BOC = 90°]
∴ ∠ 2 + ∠ 3 = ∠ 3 + ∠ 4 ⇒∠ 2 = ∠ 4
Thus, ∠ 1 = ∠ 2 and ∠ 2 = ∠ 4 ⇒ ∠ 1 = ∠ 4
∴ OM = CM and, similarly, OM = MD
=> CM = MD
Hence proved
13. Given : D is a point on the circumcircle of △ABC in which AB = AC such that B and D are
on opposite sides of line AC. CD is produced to a point E such that CE = BD.

To prove : AD = AE
Proof : In △ABD and △ACE
AB = AC | Given
BD = CE |Given
∠ABD = ∠ACE |Angles in the same segment
∴ △ABD ≅△ACE |SAS
∴ AD = AE |c.p.c.t
14. In figure, ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral. A circle passing through A and B meets AD and
BC in the points E and F, respectively.
To prove : EF || DC
Proof : ABFE is a cyclic quadrilateral
∴ ∠1 + ∠2 = 180∘ ...... (1)
|∵ Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary
∵ ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral.
∴ ∠1 + ∠3 = 180∘ ....... (2)
|∴ Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary
From (1) and (2),
∠2 = ∠3
But these angles from a pair of equal corresponding angles
∴ EF || DC

15. Let AB be the chord of the given circle with centre O and a radius of 10 cm.
Then AB = 16 cm and OB = 10 cm

From O, draw OM perpendicular to AB.

We know that the perpendicular from the centre of a circle to a chord bisects the chord.
∴ MB = ( 162 ) cm = 8 cm
In the right ΔOMB, we have:
2 2 2
OB = OM + MB (using Pythagoras theorem ∠ OMB = 90∘ )
⇒ 102 = OM2 + 82
2
⇒ 100 = OM + 64
⇒ OM2 = (100 - 64) = 36
⇒ OM= √− − cm = 6 cm
36
=> OM = 6 cm
Hence, the distance of the chord from the centre is 6 cm.
16. CD is the diameter of the circle with centre O and is perpendicular to chord AB.
Join OA.

Given: AB = 12 cm and CE = 3 cm
Let OA = OC = r cm (Radii of a circle)
Then OE = (r - 3) cm
Since the perpendicular from the centre of the circle to a chord bisects the chord, we
have:
AE = ( AB
2
) = ( 122 ) cm = 6cm
Now, in right angled ΔOEA, we have:
⇒ OA2 = OE2 + AE2 [using pythagoras theorem]
⇒ r2 = (r − 3)2 + 62
⇒ r2 = r2 − 6r + 9 + 36
⇒ r2 − r2 + 6r = 45
⇒ 6r = 45
⇒ r = ( 456 ) cm = 7.5cm
⇒ r = 7.5 cm
Hence, the required radius of the circle is 7.5 cm.
17. From the figure shown below, In Δ BOD, we have
BD = OD [Given]

∴ ∠DOB = ∠DBO ........................[∵ Angles opp. to equal sides of triangle are equal]

Let CD intersect AB at P.
Now in ΔODP and ΔBDP , we have
∠DOP = ∠DBP [∵ ∠DOB = ∠DBO]
∠DP O = ∠DP B ......[Each is 90o]
OD = BD ......[Given]
∴ ΔODP ≅ΔBDP [By AAS congruence rule]
∴ ∠ODP = ∠BDP …(1) [By C.P.C.T.]
Now, OD = OB [Radii of the same circle]
And OD = BD [Given]
∴ OB = OD = BD, so ΔOBD is an equilateral triangle.
∴ ∠ODB = 60∘ [∵ Each angle of equilateral triangle is 60o]
1
Now,∠BDP = 2
× 60∘ = 30∘ or ∠CDB = 30∘
Since, angles in the same segment of a circle are equal, so we have
So, ∠CAB = ∠CDB = 30∘
18. The bisectors of opposite angles ∠A and ∠C of a cyclic quadrilateral ABCD intersect the
circle at the point P and Q respectively.

We have to prove that PQ is a diameter of the circle. Join AQ and DQ. since opposite
angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary so in cyclic quadrilateral ABCD,
we have ∠DAB + ∠DCB = 180∘
So, 12 ∠DAB + 12 ∠DCB = 12 (180∘ )
⇒ ∠1 + ∠2 = 90∘ [∵ AP and CQ are the bisectors of ∠ A and ∠ C respectively]
∴ ∠1 + ∠3 = 90∘ [∵ ∠2 = ∠3]
[∵ ∠ 2 and ∠ 3 are angles in the same segment of a circle with chord QD]
⇒ ∠PAQ = 90∘
∴ ∠ PAQ is in a semi-circle
Hence, PQ is a diameter of circle.

i. ∠ CED = 90° (Angle in a semi circle)

In △CED, we have:
∠ CED +∠ EDC + ∠ DCE = 180° (Angle sum property of a triangle)
⇒ 90° + 40° + ∠ DCE = 180°
=> 130° + ∠ DCE = 180°
⇒ ∠ DCE = (180° - 130°) = 50°
∴ ∠ DCE = 50° ...(i)
ii. As ∠ AOC and ∠ BOC are linear pair, we have:
∠ BOC = (180° - 80°) = 100°
∠ BOC = 100° ...(ii)
In △BOC, we have:
∠ OBC + ∠ OCB + ∠ BOC = 180° (Angle sum property of a triangle)
⇒ ∠ ABC + ∠ DCE + ∠ BOC = 180° [∵ ∠ OBC = ∠ ABC and ∠ OCB = ∠ DCE]
⇒ ∠ ABC = 180° - (∠ BOC + ∠ DCE)
⇒ ∠ ABC = 180° - (100° + 50°) [From (i) and (ii)]
⇒ ∠ ABC = (180° - 150°) = 30°

∠ BAC + ∠ ABC + ∠ ACB = 180o [Sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180o]
o o o
⇒ ∠ BAC + 69 + 31 = 180
⇒ ∠ BAC = 100o = 180o
⇒ ∠ BAC = 180o - 100o = 80o
Now, ∠ BDC = ∠ BAC [Angles in the same segment of a circle are equal = 80o]
22. 40
Explanation:
Given, ∠ CBA = 110
∠ BAC = ∠ BDC [Angles in the same segment are equal]
∠ BAC + ∠ CBA + ∠ BCA = 180o
⇒ 30o + 110o + ∠ BCA = 180o
[ ∵ The sum of the ∠ s of △ABC is 180o ]
⇒ ∠ BCA = 180o - 30o - 110o = 40o

23. 35
Explanation:
The angle subtended by an arc of a circle at the center is doubled the angle subtended

Explanation:
In △BCD, we have

⇒ ∠ DCB = ∠ DBC
⇒ ∠ DCB = 25o [∵ ∠ DBC = 25o]
o
Also, ∠ DCB + ∠ DBC + ∠ BDC = 180
⇒ 25o + 25o + ∠ BDC = 180o
⇒ ∠ BDC = 130o
Since ABDC is a cyclic quadrilateral.
∴ ∠ BAC + ∠ BDC = 180o
∠ BAC + 130o = 180o
⇒ ∠ BAC = 50o
