Circles EXERCISE 10.2 Solutions
- Q1: Choose the correct option and give justification. From a point $Q$, the length of the tangent to a circle is $24$ cm and the distance of $Q$ from the centre is $25$ cm. The radius of the circle is
- Q10: Prove that the angle between the two tangents drawn from an external point to a circle is supplementary to the angle subtended by the line-segment joining the points of contact at the centre.
- Q11: Prove that the parallelogram circumscribing a circle is a rhombus.
- Q12: A triangle $ABC$ is drawn to circumscribe a circle of radius $4$ cm such that the segments $BD$ and $DC$ into which $BC$ is divided by the point of contact $D$ are of lengths $8$ cm and $6$ cm respectively (see Fig. 10.14). Find the sides $AB$ and $AC$.
- Q13: Prove that opposite sides of a quadrilateral circumscribing a circle subtend supplementary angles at the centre of the circle.
- Q2: Choose the correct option and give justification. In Fig. 10.11, if $TP$ and $TQ$ are the two tangents to a circle with centre $O$ so that $\angle POQ = 110^{\circ}$, then $\angle PTQ$ is equal to
- Q3: Choose the correct option and give justification. If tangents $PA$ and $PB$ from a point $P$ to a circle with centre $O$ are inclined to each other at angle of $80^{\circ}$, then $\angle POA$ is equal to
- Q4: Prove that the tangents drawn at the ends of a diameter of a circle are parallel.
- Q5: Prove that the perpendicular at the point of contact to the tangent to a circle passes through the centre.
- Q6: The length of a tangent from a point $A$ at distance $5$ cm from the centre of the circle is $4$ cm. Find the radius of the circle.
- Q7: Two concentric circles are of radii $5$ cm and $3$ cm. Find the length of the chord of the larger circle which touches the smaller circle.
- Q8: A quadrilateral $ABCD$ is drawn to circumscribe a circle (see Fig. 10.12). Prove that $AB + CD = AD + BC$.
- Q9: In Fig. 10.13, $XY$ and $X'Y'$ are two parallel tangents to a circle with centre $O$ and another tangent $AB$ with point of contact $C$ intersecting $XY$ at $A$ and $X'Y'$ at $B$. Prove that $\angle AOB = 90^{\circ}$.

The clarifications were given very nicely and she teaches in a way I understand. The interaction between me and mam is very good I feel comfortable asking her doubts. The classes are very nice.
Akshay is an excellent teacher. He has taught my son in 10 th standard science , with which he understood the concepts clearly and he also gave so many past question papers for my son to work out, all these made my son score 95 in board exams . I would definitely recommend Akshay for students who want to improve and get good scores in science .
