Question 13 Marks
Prove that two different circles cannot intersect each other at more than two points.
Answer
Suppose two circles intersect in three points A, B, C.
Then A, B, C are non-collinear so a unique circle passes through these three points. This is contradiction to the face that two given circles are passing through A, B, C.
Hence, two circles cannot intersect each other at more than two points.

Question 23 Marks
If O is the centre of the circle, find the value of x in the following figure:
Answer
We have$\angle\text{BAC}=50^\circ$ and $\angle\text{DBC}=70^\circ$
$\therefore\angle\text{BDC}=\angle\text{BAC}$ [Angle in same segment]
In $\triangle\text{BDC},$ by angle sum property
$\angle\text{BDC}+\angle\text{BCD}+\angle\text{DBC}=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow50^\circ+\text{x}+70^\circ=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=180^\circ-50^\circ-70^\circ=60^\circ$

Question 33 Marks
In the given figure, O is the center of the circle. If $\angle\text{BOD}=160^\circ,$ find the value of x and y.
Answer
We have, $\angle\text{BOD}=160^\circ$ By degree measure theorem$\angle\text{BOD}=2\angle\text{BCD}$
$\Rightarrow160^\circ=\text{2x}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{160^\circ}{2}=80^\circ$

Question 133 Marks
Prove that the perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a cyclic quadrilateral are concurrent.
Answer
Let ABCD be a cyclic quadrilateral, and let O be the centre of the corresponding circle.
Then, each side of quadrilateral ABCD is a chord of the circle and the perpendicular bisector of a chord always passes through the centre of the circle.
So, right bisectors of the sides of quadrilateral ABCD will pass through the center O of the corresponding circle.
