Question 11 Mark
$ABCD$ is a cyclic quadrilateral such that $\angle\text{A}=90^\circ,\angle\text{B}=70^\circ,\angle\text{C}=95^\circ$ and $\angle\text{D}=105^\circ.$
Answer
 In a cyclic quadrilateral, the sum of opposite angles is $180^\circ .$
Now, $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{C}=90^\circ+95^\circ=185^\circ\neq180^\circ$ and
$\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{D}=70^\circ+105^\circ=175^\circ\neq180^\circ$
Here, we see that, the sum of opposite angles is not equal to $180^\circ .$
So, it is not a cyclic quadrilateral.

Question 21 Mark
If $AOB$ is a diameter of a circle and $C$ is a point on the circle, then $\mathrm{AC}^2+\mathrm{BC}^2=A B^2$.
Answer
Since, any diameter of the circle subtends a right angle to any point on the circle. If $A O B$ is a diameter of a circle and $C$ is a point on the circle, then $\triangle A C B$ is right angled at $C$. In right angled $\triangle A C B$, [use Pythagoras theorem] $\mathrm{AC}^2+\mathrm{BC}^2=A B^2$

Question 31 Mark
Two congruent circles with centres $O$ and $O′$ intersect at two points $A$ and $B.$ Then $\angle\text{AOB}=\angle\text{AO'B}.$
Answer

Join $AB$ and $OB, O'A$ and $BO'.$
In $\triangle\text{AOB}$ and $\triangle\text{AO'B,} OA = AO' [$both circles have same radius$] OB = BO' [$both circles have same radius$]$ and $AB = AB [$common chord$]$
$\triangle\text{AOB}=\triangle\text{AO'B} [$by $SSC$ congruence rule$]$
 $\Rightarrow\angle\text{AOB}=\angle\text{AO'B}[ $by $CPCT]$

Question 41 Mark
Two chords $AB$ and $AC$ of a circle with centre $O$ are on the opposite sides of $OA.$ Then $\angle\text{OAB}=\angle\text{OAC}.$
Answer
 In figure, $AB$ and $AC$ are two chords of a circle. Join $OB$ and $OC.$

In $\triangle\text{OAB}$ and $\triangle\text{OAC}, OA = OA [$common side$] OB = OC [$both are the radius of circle$]$
Here, we are not able to show that either the any angle or third side is equal and $\triangle\text{OAB}$ is,
​​​​​​​$\therefore\angle\text{OAB}\neq\angle\text{OAC}.$

Question 51 Mark
A circle of radius $3\ cm$ can be drawn through two points $A, B$ such that $AB = 6\ cm$
Answer
Suppose, we consider diameter of a circle is $AB = 66m.$
Then, radius of a circle $=\frac{\text{AB}}{2}=\frac{6}{2}=3\text{cm},$ which is true.

Question 71 Mark
If $A, B, C$ and $D$ are four points such that $\angle\text{BAC}=45^\circ$ and $\angle\text{BDC}=45^\circ,$ then $A, B, C, D$ are concyclic.
Answer
Since, $\angle\text{BAC}=45^\circ$ and $\angle\text{BDC}=45^\circ$


As we know, angles in the same segment of a circle are equal. Hence, $A, B, C$ and $D$ are concyclic.

Question 91 Mark
If a circle is divided into three equal arcs each is a major arc.
Answer
Given that if a circle is divided into three equal arcs each is a major arc.
As we know that if points $P, Q$ and $R$ lies on the given circle $C(O, r)$ in such a way that: $1\big(\widehat{\text{PQ}}\big)=1\big(\widehat{\text{QR}}\big)=1\big(\widehat{\text{RP}}\big)$
Then each arc is called major arc.

Question 101 Mark
Two chords $AB$ and $CD$ of a circle are each at distances 4cm from the centre. Then $AB = CD.$
Answer
Because, the chords equidistant from the centre of circle are equal in length.

Question 111 Mark
In Fig. if $AOB$ is a diameter and $\angle\text{ADC}=120^\circ,$ then $\angle\text{CAB}=30^\circ.$
Answer
  Join $CA$ and $CB.$

 Since, $ADCB$ is a cyclic quadrilateral.
$\angle\text{ADC}+\angle\text{CBA}=180^\circ [$sum of opposite angles of cyclic quadrilateral is $180^\circ ]$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{CBA}=180^\circ-120^\circ=60^\circ\ \ [\therefore\angle\text{ADC}=120^\circ]$
In $\triangle\text{ACB,}\ \angle\text{CAB} + \angle\text{CBA} + \angle\text{ACB} = 180^\circ$
[by angle sum property of a triangle]
$\angle\text{CAB}+60^\circ+90^\circ=180^\circ$
$\big[$triangle formed from diameter to the circle is $90^\circ$
i.e., $\angle\text{ACB}=90^\circ\big]$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{CAB}=180^\circ-150^\circ=30^\circ.$

Question 151 Mark
The degree measure of a semi-circle is $180^\circ $
Answer
Given that the degree measure of a semi-circle is $180^\circ .$
As we know that the diameter ofa circle divides into two equal parts and each of these two arcs are known as semi-circle. $\widehat{\text{PQ}}$ and $\widehat{\text{QP}}$ are semi circle.
Hence, $\text{m}\big(\widehat{\text{PQ}}\big)=\text{m}\big(\widehat{\text{QP}}\big)=180^\circ$

Answer
True. Explanation: Given that a chord of the circle, which is twice as long as its radius is diameter of the circle. As we know that a chord of a circle which is largest to others and passing through the centre of the circle and twice as long as its radius is called diameter of the circle.

Question 171 Mark
The degree measure of an arc is the complement of the central angle containing the arc.
Answer
Given that the degree measure of an arc is the complement of the central angle containing the arc.
As we know that the degree measure of a minor arc is the measure of the central angle containing the arc and that of a major arc is $360^\circ $ minus the degree measure of the corresponding minor arc.
Let degree measure of an arc $\widehat{\text{PQ}}$ is $\theta$ of a given circle $C(O, r)$ is denoted by $\text{m}\big(\widehat{\text{PQ}}\big)=\theta.$

Question 181 Mark
If $A, B, C, D$ are four points such that $\angle\text{BAC}=30^\circ$ and $\angle\text{BDC}=60^\circ$ then $D$ is the centre of the circle through $A, B$ and $C.$
Answer
Because, there can be many points $D,$ such that $\angle\text{BDC}=60^\circ$ and each such point cannot be the centre of the circle through $A, B$ and $C.$
