  • Statement-1 and Statement-2 are True; Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1.
  • B
    Statement-1 and Statement-2 are True; Statement-2 is not a correct explanation for Statement-1.
  • C
    Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False.
  • D
    Statement-1 is False, Statement-2 is True.
Answer
Correct option: A.
Statement-1 and Statement-2 are True; Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1.
(a)
In Fig. (ii), ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral such that $\angle A D C=120^{\circ}$. Therefore,
$\angle A D C+\angle A B C=180^{\circ} \Rightarrow \angle A BC=180^{\circ}-120^{\circ}=60^{\circ}$
We find that $\angle A C B=90^{\circ}$ (angle in a semi-circle).
Using angle sum property in $\triangle A C B$, we obtain
$\angle A C B+\angle B A C+\angle A B C=180^{\circ} \Rightarrow 90^{\circ}+\angle B AC+60^{\circ}=180^{\circ} \Rightarrow \angle B A C=30^{\circ}$
So, statement-2 is true.
In Fig.(i), join BC. We observe that ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral.
$\therefore \quad \angle A D C+\angle A B C=180^{\circ} \Rightarrow 120^{\circ}+\angle A BC=180^{\circ} \Rightarrow \angle A B C=60^{\circ}$
Since AOB is a diameter of the circle. Therefore, $\angle A C B=90^{\circ}$.
Using angle sum property in $\triangle A B C$, we obtain $\angle C A B=30^{\circ}$.
So, statement- 1 is also true. We also observe that statement- 2 is a correct explanation for statement-1. Hence, option (a) is correct.

MCQ 21 Mark
Statement-1 (A): If A, B, C, D are four points such that $\angle B A C=30^{\circ}$ and $\angle B D C=60^{\circ}$, then D is the centre of the circle through A, B and C.
Statement-2 (R): The angle subtended by an arc at the centre is double the angle subtended by it at any point on the remaining part of the circle.
  • A
    Statement-1 and Statement-2 are True; Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1.
  • B
    Statement-1 and Statement-2 are True; Statement-2 is not a correct explanation for Statement-1.
  • C
    Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False.
  • Statement-1 is False, Statement-2 is True.
Answer
Correct option: D.
Statement-1 is False, Statement-2 is True.
(d)
Statement-2 is true.
Statement-1 is not true, because there can be many points D such that $\angle B D C=60^{\circ}$ and each such point cannot be the centre of the circle through A, B, C. Hence, option (d) is correct.

Answer
Correct option: C.
Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False.
(c)
Statement- 1 is true, because a circle of radius 3 cm can be drawn which has AB as its diameter. Statement-2 is not true because a circle through two points cannot pass through a point which is collinear to these two points. Hence, option (c) is correct.

    Statement-1 is False, Statement-2 is True.
Answer
Correct option: B.
Statement-1 and Statement-2 are True; Statement-2 is not a correct explanation for Statement-1.
(b)
Statement-1 is true, because angles in the same segment of a circle are equal. Statement-2 is also true, because $\angle A+\angle C=180^{\circ}$ and $\angle B+\angle D=180^{\circ}$.
Hence, option (b) is correct.

Answer
Correct option: A.
Statement-1 and Statement-2 are True; Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1.
(a)
Statement-2 is true. Using statement- 2, we find that $\angle A C B=90^{\circ}$. Applying Pythagoras theorem in $\triangle A C B$, we obtain $A B^2=A C^2+B C^2$. So, statement -1 is also true.
Clearly, statement-2 is a correct explanation for statement- 1. Hence, option (a) is correct.
