Explanation:
\nXAY is tangent and AO is radius at contact point A of circle.
\n\"MCQ
\nAO = 5 cm
\n\u2220OAY = 90\u00b0
\n\u2234 CD is another chord at distance (perpendicular) of 8 cm from A and CMD || XAY meets AB at M.
\njoin OD.
\nOD = 5 cm
\nOM = 8 – 5 = 3 cm
\n\u2220OMD = \u2220OAY = 90\u00b0
\nNow, in right angled \u2206OMD
\nMD2 = OD2 – MO2
\n= 52 – 32
\n= 25 – 9
\n= 16
\n\u21d2MD = 4 cmWe know thaat perpendiculars from centre O of circle bisect the chorde.
\nCD = 2MD
\n= 2 \u00d7 4
\n= 8 cm.
\nHence, length of chord, CD = 8 cm.<\/p>\n

\n(D) 4\u221a3 cm
\n\"MCQ
\nAnswer:
\n(C) 2\u221a3 cm<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\nJoin OA. OA is radius and AT is tangen at contact point A.
\n\u2234\u2220OAT = 90\u00b0,
\nGiven that, OT = 4 cm
\nNow, \\(\\frac{A T}{4}\\) = \\(\\vec{a}\\) = cos 30\u00b0
\n\u21d2 AT = 4 \u00d7 \\(\\frac{\\sqrt{3}}{2}\\) = 2\u221a3 cm.<\/p>\n

Question 7.<\/p>\n

In the given figure, ‘O’ is the centre of circle, PQ is a chord and the tangent PR at P makes an angle of 50\u00b0 with PQ, then POQ is equal to:<\/h2>\n

(A) 100\u00b0
\n(B) 80\u00b0
\n(C) 90\u00b0
\n(D) 75\u00b0
\n\"MCQ
\nAnswer:
\n(A) 100\u00b0<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\nOP is radius and PR is tangent at P.
\nso, \u2220OPR = 90\u00b0
\n\u2220OPQ + 50 = 90\u00b0
\n\u2220OPQ = 90 – 50\u00b0
\n\u2220OPQ = 40\u00b0
\nIn OPQ, OP = OQ
\n[Radii of same circle]
\n\u2234\u2220Q = \u2220OPQ = 40\u00b0
\n[ Angle opposite to equal sides are equal]
\nBut, \u2220POQ = 180\u00b0 – \u2220P – \u2220QO= 180\u00b0 – 40\u00b0 – 40\u00b0
\n= 180 – 80\u00b0 = 100\u00b0
\n\u21d2 \u2220POQ = 100\u00b0 .<\/p>\n

Question 8.<\/p>\n

In the given figure, if PA and PB are tangents to the circle with centre O such that \u2220APB = 50\u00b0, then \u2220OAB is equal to:<\/h2>\n

(A) 25\u00b0
\n(B) 30\u00b0
\n(C) 40\u00b0
\n(D) 50\u00b0
\n\"MCQ
\nAnswer:
\n(A) 25\u00b0<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\nIn \u2206OAB, we have OA = OB [Radii of same circle ]
\n\u2234\u2220OAB = \u2220OBA [Angle opposite to equal sides are equal]
\nAs OA and PA are radius and tangent respectively at contact point A.
\nSo, \u2220OAP = 90\u00b0
\nSimilariy, \u2220OBP = 90\u00b0
\nNow, in quadrilateral PAOB,
\n\u2220P + \u2220A + \u2220O +\u2220B = 360\u00b0
\n\u21d2 50\u00b0 + 90 +\u2220 O + 90 = 360\u00b0
\n\u21d2 \u2220O = 360\u00b0 – 90\u00b0 – 90\u00b0 – 50\u00b0
\n\u21d2 \u2220O = 130\u00b0
\nAgain, in \u2206OAB,
\n\u2220O + \u2220OAB +\u2220 OBA = 180\u00b0
\n\u21d2 130\u00b0 +\u2220OAB + \u2220OAB = 180\u00b0 [\u2234 \u2220OBA = \u2220OAB]
\n\u21d2 2 \u2220OAB = 180\u00b0 – 130\u00b0 = 50v
\n\u21d2 \u2220OAB = 25\u00b0
\nHence,\u2220OAB = 25\u00b0<\/p>\n

Assertion and Reason Based MCQs<\/span><\/p>\n

Directions: In the following questions, A statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as.
\n(A) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
\n(B) Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A
\n(C) A is true but R is false
\n(D) A is false and R is True<\/p>\n

Question 1.<\/p>\n

Assertion (A): The length of the tangent drawn from a point 8 cm away from the centre of circle of radius 6 cm is 2 \u221a7 cm.
\nReason (R): If the angle between two radii of a circle is 130\u00b0, then the angle between the tangents at the end points of radii at their point of intersection is 50\u00b0.<\/h2>\n

Answer:
\n(B) Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\nIn case of assertion:
\nLength of the tangent =\\(\\sqrt{d^{2}-r^{2}}\\)
\n= \\(\\sqrt{(8)^{2}-(6)^{2}}\\)
\n= \\(\\sqrt{64-36}\\)
\n= \\(\\sqrt{28}\\) = 2\u221a7 cm
\n\u2234 Assertion is correct.
\nIn case of reason:
\nSince, sum of the angles between radii and between intersection point of tangent is 180\u00b0. Angle at the point of intersection of tangents = 180\u00b0 -130\u00b0 = 50\u00b0.
\n\u2234 Reason is correct.
\nHence, both assertion and reason are correct but reason is not the correct explanation for assertion.<\/p>\n

\"MCQ<\/p>\n

Question 2.<\/p>\n

Assertion (A): If a chord AB subtends an angle of 60\u00b0 at the centre of a circle, then the angle between the tangents at A and B is also 60\u00b0.
\nReason (R): The length of the tangent from an external point P on a circle with centre O is always less than OP.<\/h2>\n

Answer:
\n(D) A is false and R is True<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\nIn case of assertion:
\nChord AB subtends \u222060\u00b0 at O
\n\"MCQ
\n\u2234 \u2220OAP = 90\u00b0
\nSimilarly, \u2220OBP = 90\u00b0
\nIn quadrilateral OAPB,
\n\u2220O + \u2220P + \u2220OAP + \u2220OBP = 360\u00b0
\n\u21d2 60 + \u2220P + 90\u00b0 +90\u00b0 = 360\u00b0
\n\u21d2 \u2220P = 360\u00b0 – 240\u00b0
\n\u21d2 \u2220P = 120\u00b0
\n\u2234 Assertion is correct.
\nIn case of reason:
\nPT and OT are the tangent and radius, respectivly at contact point T.
\n\"MCQ
\nSo, OTP = 90\u00b0
\n\u21d2 \u2206OPT is right angled triangle.
\nAgain, in \u2206OPT
\n\u2234 \u2220T > \u2220O
\n\u2234 \u2220OP > \u2220PT
\n[ side opposite to greater angle is larger]
\n\u2234 Reason is correct.
\nHence, assertion is incorrect but reason is correct.<\/p>\n

Question 3.<\/p>\n

Assertion (A): The tangent to the circumcircle of an isosceles AABC at A, in which AB = AC, is parallel to BC.
\nReason (R): PQ is a tangent drawn from an external point P to a circle with centre O. QOR is the diameter of the circle. If \u2220POR = 120\u00b0, then the measure of \u2220OPQ is 60\u00b0.<\/h2>\n

Answer:
\n(C) A is true but R is false<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\nIn case of assertion:
\ngiven that, \u2206ABC, inscribed in a circle in which AB = AC
\n\"MCQ
\nPAQ is tangent at A.
\nAB is chord.
\n\u2234\u2220 PAB = \u2220C
\nAs, we know that , \u2220PAB formed by chord AB with tangente segment.
\nIn \u2206ABC,
\nAB = AC [ Given]
\n\u2234 \u2220B = \u2220C [\u2234Angles opposite to equai sides are equal]……(ii)
\nFrom (i) and (ii), \u2220B = \u2220PAB
\nThese are alternate interior angles.
\nTherefore, PAQ || BC.
\n\u2234 Assertion is correct.
\nIn case of reason:
\n\"MCQ
\nCiven that,
\nPQ is a tangent, \u2220POR = 120\u00b0
\n\u2220POR = \u2220OQP + \u2220OPQ [ Exterior angle sum property]
\n\u2220OPQ = 120 – 90\u00b0 = 30\u00b0
\n\u2220OPQ = 30\u00b0
\n\u2234 Reason is correct.
\nHence, assertion is correct but reason is incorrect.<\/p>\n

Question 4.<\/p>\n

Assertion (A): PQ is a tangent to a circle with centre O at point P. If AOPQ is an isosceles triangle, then \u2220OQP = 45\u00b0.
\nReason (R): If two tangents inclined at 60\u00b0 are drawn to a circle of radius 3 cm, then the length of each tangent is 3\u221a3 cm.<\/h2>\n

Answer:
\n(B) Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\nIn case of assertion:
\nAs we know that \u2220OPQ = 90\u00b0 ( Angle between tangent and radius)
\nLet \u2220PQO be x\u00b0, then\u2220QOP = x\u00b0
\nSince\u2220 OPQ is an isosceles triangle.
\n(given)(OP = OQ)
\n\"MCQ
\nIn \u2206OPQ,
\n\u2220OPQ + \u2220PQO + \u2220QOP = 180
\n(property of the sum of angles of a triangle)
\n\u2234 90\u00b0 + x\u00b0 + x\u00b0 = 180\u00b0
\n\u21d2 2x\u00b0 = 180\u00b0 – 90\u00b0 = 90\u00b0
\n\u21d2 x = \\(\\frac{90}{2}\\) = 45.
\nHence, OQP is 45<\/p>\n

\u2234 Assertion is correct.
\nIn case of reason:
\n\"MCQ
\nIn \u2206PAO,
\ntan 30 = \\(\\frac{A O}{P A}\\) (Using trigonometry)
\n\\(\\frac{1}{\\sqrt{3}}\\) = \\(\\frac{3}{P A}\\)
\nPA = 3 \u221a3 cm.
\n\u2234 Reason is correct.
\nHence, assertion is correct but reason is incorrect.<\/p>\n

\n(C) 150\u00b0
\n(D) 90\u00b0
\nAnswer:
\n(C) 150\u00b0<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\n\u2220ORP = 90\u00b0 & \u2220OQP [\u2235 radius of circle is perpendicular to tangent]
\n\u2234 \u2220ROQ + \u2220ORP + \u2220OQP + \u2220QPR = 360\u00b0 \u2220ROQ + 90\u00b0 + 90\u00b0 + 30\u00b0 = 360\u00b0 \u2220ROQ + 210\u00b0 = 360\u00b0 \u2220ROQ = 360\u00b0-210\u00b0
\n\u2220ROQ = 150\u00b0<\/p>\n

Question 2.<\/p>\n

Find \u2220RQP.<\/h2>\n

(A) 75\u00b0
\n(B) 60\u00b0
\n(C) 30\u00b0
\n(D) 90\u00b0
\nAnswer:
\n(A) 75\u00b0<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\n\u2220OQR = \u2220ORQ
\n\u2220RPQ = 150
\nand \u2220ROQ + \u2220OQR + \u2220ORQ = 180
\n150 + 2\u2220ORQ =180
\n2\u2220ORQ = 30
\n\u2220ORQ = 15
\n\u2220OQR = ORQ = 1
\n\u2220RQP = \u2220OQP – \u2220OQR= 90 – 15<\/p>\n
