Q1(i):
Fill in the blanks using the correct word given in brackets : (i) All circles are ______. (congruent, similar)
Solution :
Given: A set of geometric figures defined as circles of varying radii.
To Find: Determine whether all circles are "congruent" or "similar" by filling in the blank.
Step 1: Defining Congruency
Two geometric figures are said to be congruent if they have the same shape and the same size. For two circles to be congruent, their radii must be equal ($r_1 = r_2$).
Step 2: Defining Similarity
Two geometric figures are said to be similar if they have the same shape, but not necessarily the same size. In the case of circles, every circle is defined by the set of all points in a plane that are at a fixed distance (radius) from a fixed point (center). Because all circles possess the same round shape, they satisfy the condition of similarity regardless of their radius.
Step 3: Logical Deduction
Since circles can have different radii (as shown in the diagram where $r_1=30$ and $r_2=50$), they cannot be congruent in all cases. However, because the ratio of the corresponding parts (the circumference to the diameter, which is $\pi$) remains constant for all circles, they are always similar.
Step 4: Conclusion
Based on the definition of similarity in geometry, all circles are similar because they share the same shape, even if their sizes differ.
Final Answer: All circles are similar.

I have taught students at Samarthanam and NGO for challenged students from class 1-XII in Bangalore for about 2 years. I used to teach students of groups 3-10 every weekend. I helped students with their home work as well as clarify concepts thought in the classroom. I saw improvement in student performance over the course of time with the my teaching methods
An exceptional teacher who genuinely cares! Sir assessed my son’s weak areas in coordinate geometry and tailored his lessons perfectly. The easy explanation style built strong fundamentals, helping my son boost his term score from 50% to an unbelievable 88%
I have experience teaching Mathematics to Grade 10 students with a focus on strengthening fundamental concepts and preparing them for board examinations. I teach important topics such as Real Numbers, Polynomials, Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables, Quadratic Equations, Arithmetic Progressions, Trigonometry, Coordinate Geometry, Statistics, and Probability. My teaching approach involves explaining concepts clearly, solving problems step by step, and giving regular practice from NCERT and previous years’ board exam papers. I also conduct tests, revision classes, and doubt-clearing sessions to track students’ progress. My goal is to make mathematics simple and interesting while helping students build confidence and achieve good results in their Grade 10 board exams.
Very good teacher. Patient with the students and understands where they are confused quickly. Motivates the students to be better too.
