Sample Questions

1multiple correct

Which of the following are properties of tangents drawn from an external point to a circle?

Show answer

Equal in length, Subtend equal angles at center, Make equal angles with the line joining point to center

From an external point, tangents are: (1) equal in length, (2) subtend equal angles at center, (3) equally inclined to line joining point to center. They are neither parallel nor perpendicular to each other.

2multiple choice

In triangle ABC inscribed in a circle, ∠BAC = 50°. What is the measure of arc BC?

Show answer

100°

The inscribed angle ∠BAC = 50° subtends arc BC. By the inscribed angle theorem, the arc measure is twice the inscribed angle. Therefore, arc BC = 2 × 50° = 100°.

3multiple choice

Two chords AB and CD of a circle intersect at point P inside the circle. If PA = 6 cm, PB = 4 cm, and PC = 8 cm, find PD.

Show answer

3 cm

By the intersecting chords theorem: PA × PB = PC × PD. Substituting: 6 × 4 = 8 × PD, so 24 = 8 × PD, therefore PD = 24/8 = 3 cm.

4multiple choice

A tangent PT and a secant PAB are drawn from external point P to a circle. If PA = 4 cm and AB = 5 cm, find the length of tangent PT.

Show answer

6 cm

By the tangent-secant theorem: PT² = PA × PB. Here PB = PA + AB = 4 + 5 = 9 cm. So PT² = 4 × 9 = 36, therefore PT = 6 cm.
