Class 10 Mathematics Chapter 10 Circles Worksheet with Answers

 

CIRCLE

Q.- In figure, if TP and TQ are the two tangents to a circle with centre O so that ∠POQ = 110o, then find ∠ PTQ. 
WT_circles test 16

 

Ans- ∠POQ = 110o
∠OPT = 90o [Angle between tangent and radius through the point of contact]
∠OQT = 90o [Angle between tangent and radius through the point of contact]
In quadrilateral OPTQ,
∠POQ + OQT + PTQ = 360o
∴The sum of all the angles of a quadrilateral is 360o.
=> 110o + 90o + 90o + PTQ = 360o
=> 290o + PTQ = 360o
=> PTQ = 360o - 290o = 70o
=> Hence, the PTQ is 70o.
 
Q.- From an external point P, tangents PA and PB are drawn to a circle with centre O. At one point E on the circle tangent is drawn which intersects PA and PB at C and D respectively.If PA = 14 cm, find the perimeter of ΔPCD. 
 
Ans- We have,
WT_circles test 17
AC = CE, BD = DE
And, AP = BP = 14 cm
∴ Perimeter of ΔPCD = PC + CD+ PD
=>Perimeter of ΔPCD = PC + (CE + ED) + PD
= (PC + CE) + (ED + PD)
= (PC + AC) + (BD + PD)
= PA + PB
= 14 + 14
= 28
∴ Perimeter of ΔPCD = 28 cm.
 
Q.- The tangent at a point C of a circle and a diameter AB when extended intersect at P. If
∠PCA = 110o, find ∠CBA.
[Hint: Join C with centre O]. 

WT_circles test 19

Ans-According to the question,we are given that tangent at a point C of a circle and a diameter AB when extended intersect at P. If ∠PCA = 110o, find ∠CBA.
WT_circles test 18
OC and CP are radius and tangent respectively at contact point C.
So, ∠OCP = 90o
∠OCA = ∠ACP -∠ OCP
=> ∠OCA = 110o - 90o
=> ∠OCA = 20o
 
In ΔOAC,
OA = OC [Radii of same circle]
Therefore, ∠OCA = ∠A = 20o [Since, Angles opposite to equal sides are equal]
CP and CB are tangent and chord of a circle.
Therefore, ∠CBP = ∠A [Angles in alternate segments are equal]
In ΔCAP,
∠P + ∠A + ∠ACP = 180o [Angled sum property of a triangle]
=> ∠P + 20o + 110o = 180o
=> ∠P = 180o - 130o
=> ∠P = 50o
In Δ BPC,
Exterior angle ∠CBA = ∠P + ∠BCP
=> ∠ CBP = 50o + 20o
=> ∠ CBP = 70o
 
Q.- In Fig. there are two concentric circles with centre O of radii 5 cm and 3 cm. From an external point P, tangents PA and PB are drawn to these circles. If AP = 12 cm, find the length of BP. 

WT_circles test 20

Ans- 

WT_circles test 21

Join OA, OB and OP.
∠OAP =90as the tangent makes a right angle with the radius of the circle at the point of contact.
In ΔOAP, we have,
OP2 = OA2 + AP
OP2 = 52 + 122
=> OP = 13 cm
 
∠ OBP=900 as the tangent makes a right angle with the radius of the circle at the
point of contact.
In ΔOBP, we have,
OP2 = OB2 + BP2
132 = 32 + Bp2
=>  BP2 = 169 - 9 = 160
=>  BP = √160cm =4√10 cm
 
Q.-In the given figure, the pair of tangents A to a circle with centre O are perpendicular to each other and length of each tangent is 5 cm, then the radius of the circle is : 
WT_circles test 22
a. 2.5 cm
b. 5 cm
c. 7.5 cm
d. 10 cm
 
Ans-  b. 5 cm
Explanation:
Construction: Joined OA and OB.
Here OA⊥ AP and OB⊥BP and PA⊥PB
Also AP = PB
Therefore, APBO is a square.
=> AP = OA = OB = 5 cm
