Circles

The perimeter of the circle is referred to as the circumference of the circle.

• A secant divides a circle in two parts and a tangent touches a circle.
• There is one and only one tangent at a point of the circle.
  There can be maximum two number of tangents which can be drawn to the circle from any given external point.
  The length of two tangents from an external point to a circle is equal. 

The tangent to a circle is perpendicular to the radius through the point of contact.

Solution. 5 cm

Question. PQ and RS are two parallel tangents to a circle with centre O and another tangent XY, with point of contact C intersects PQ at A and RS at B. Prove that ΔAOB = 90°. 
Solution. Join O to A, O to B and O to C.   
Since tangent is perpendicular to the radius through the point of contact.

Question. PQR is a right-angled triangle right angled at Q with PQ = 16 cm, QR = 12 cm. A circle with centre at O and radius r is inscribed in ΔPQR. Find the value of r.
Solution. Let the circle touch the sides QR, RP and PQ of ΔPQR at the points A, B and C respectively. Join O to A and O to C.   

Then, OC = OA = r cm. 
In ΔPQR, using pythagoras theorem,
PR² = PQ² + QR²
= 162 + 122 = 256 + 144 = 400
∴ PR = 20 cm.
Since OC is the radius and PQ is the tangent at C, we have ΔOCQ = 90°. Similarly, ΔOAQ = 90°.
Also, ΔAQC = 90° [∴ given]
Hence, the remaining angle AOC of quadrilateral AQCO is also 90°.
Again, QA = QC [∴ lengths of the tangents from the external point to a circle are equal]
∴ The quadrilateral AQCO is a square.
∴ QC = QA = r cm
Hence, PC = (16 – r) cm and RA = (12 – r) cm.
Now, PB = PC (∴ same as above)
Similarly, RB = RA = (12 – r) cm
⇒ PB + RB = (16 – r + 12 – r) cm = (28 – 2r) cm
⇒ PR = (28 – 2r) cm
⇒ 20 cm = (28 – 2r) cm
⇒ 2r = 28 – 20 = 8
⇒ r = 4
Hence, the required length of the radius of the circle is 4 cm. Ans.

Question. The radius of the incircle of a triangle is 4 cm and the segments into which one side is divided by the point of contact are 6 cm and 8 cm. Determine the other two sides of the triangle. 
Solution. Since lengths of tangent from an external point to the circle are equal.   
∴ BP = BR = 8 cm
CP = CQ = 6 cm
and, AR = AQ = x cm (say)
Also, IP = IQ = IR = 4 cm
Now, 2s = a + b + c
⇒ 2s = 8 + 6 + 6 + x + x + 8
⇒ 2s = 28 + 2x

⇒ s = 14 + x
⇒ s – a = 14 + x – 14 = x, s – b = 14 + x – 6 – x = 8 and
s – c = 14 + x – 8 – x = 6.
Clearly, ar (ΔABC) = ar (ΔIBC) + ar (ΔICA) + ar (ΔIAB)

Squaring both sides, we get
3x (14 + x) = (14 + x)²
⇒ 3x = 14 + x [∴ 14 + x ≠ 0]
⇒ 2x = 14 ⇒ x = 7
⇒ AB = (8 + 7) cm = 15 cm and AC = (6 + 7) cm = 13 cm. Ans.

Question. A point P is 26 cm away from the centre O of a circle and the length PQ of the tangent segment drawn from P to the circle is 10 cm. Find the radius of the circle.
Solution. Let PQ be a tangent to the circle from point P and OQ be the radius at the point of contact.   

Question. A circle is touching the side BC of ΔABC at P and touching AB and AC produced at Q and R respectively. Prove that AQ = 1/2 (Perimeter of ΔABC).
Solution. Since tangents from an exterior point to a circle are equal in length. 
∴ BP = BQ …(i)
CP = CR …(ii)
and, AQ = AR …(iii)
from eqn. (iii), we have AQ = AR
⇒ AB + BQ = AC + CR
⇒ AB + BP = AC + CP …(iv)
[∴ using (i) and (ii)]

Now, Perimeter of ΔABC = AB + BC + AC
= AB + (BP + PC) + AC
= (AB + BP) + (AC + PC)
= 2 (AB + BP) [using (iv)]
= 2 AQ [using (i)]
AQ = 1/2 (Perimeter of ΔABC).
