  1. Question 1

    Two parallel chords of a circle have lengths 48 cm and 14 cm. They lie on opposite sides of the centre and are 31 cm apart. What is the radius of the circle?

  2. Question 2

    Chords AB and CD of a circle intersect at P inside the circle. \(\text{AP} = 6\text{ cm},\) \(PB = 8\text{ cm}\) and \(CD = 19\text{ cm}.\) What is the length of the longer of the two segments into which P divides CD?

  3. Question 3

    From an external point P, a tangent PT of length 12 cm is drawn to a circle. A secant from P passes through the centre and meets the circle at A and B, with \(PA = 8\text{ cm}\) (A nearer to P). What is the radius of the circle?

  4. Question 4

    Two circles of radii 8 cm and 3 cm have their centres 13 cm apart. What is the ratio of the length of a direct common tangent to the length of a transverse common tangent?

  5. Question 5

    Two circles have radii 5 cm and 1 cm. The length of their transverse common tangent is 8 cm. What is the length of their direct common tangent?

  6. Question 6

    ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral in which AB is a diameter of the circle. If \(\angle ADC = 125^{\circ},\) what is the measure of \(\angle BAC?\)

  7. Question 7

    AB is a chord of a circle with centre O, and AT is the tangent at A such that \(\angle BAT = 70^{\circ}.\) D is a point on the minor arc AB. What is the value of \(\angle OAB + \angle ADB?\)

  8. Question 8

    Two concentric circles are such that a chord of the larger circle, 40 cm long, touches the smaller circle. What is the area of the region between the two circles?

  9. Question 9

    What is the radius of the circle inscribed in a triangle whose sides measure 9 cm, 10 cm and 17 cm?

  10. Question 10

    In a right-angled triangle, the radius of the circumcircle is 13 cm and the radius of the incircle is 4 cm. What is the area of the triangle?
