CIRCLES

BASIC CONCEPTS RELATED TO CHAPTER

You might have seen many objects that are circular in shape.
· A circle is defined as the collection of all the points on a plane that are at equal distance from a given fixed point on the plane.
· This fixed point is called centre of the circle and the fixed distance is called the radius.
· A line segment joining the centre of a circle with any point on its circumference is called the radius of the circle.
· A line that joins two points on the circumference of a circle is called a chord.
· A chord that passes through the centre of a circle is called the diameter of the circle.
· A diameter divides a circle into two equal parts, each is called a semicircle. Diameter is
the longest chord of a circle. The diameter of a circle is twice the radius.

· The tangent to a circle is a line that touches the circle at one point.
L is the point where the tangent touches the circle.It is called the point of contact.

· Secant intersects the circle at two points.

class_10_maths_concept_06

· The point at which the straight line touches the circle is called the point of contact or point of tangency.

Some properties of tangents to a circle are:-
1. Infinite number of tangents can be drawn to a circle but only one tangent can be drawn at any given point on a circle

class_10_maths_concept_07

2. From an external point we can draw two tangents of equal length

class_10_maths_concept_08

3. The radius of the circle is perpendicular to the tangent at its point of contact and the tangents drawn at the extremities of the diameter of a circle are parallel.

THEOREMS


Theorem 1:-The tangent at any point on a circle is perpendicular to the radius drawn to the point of contact.

class_10_maths_concept_010

Given: A tangent AB with point of contact P.
To prove: OP
AB
Proof: Consider point C on AB other than P.
C must lie outside the circle. (
A tangent can have only one point of contact with the circle)
OC > OP (
C lies outside the circle)
This is true for all positions of C on AB.
Thus, OP is the shortest distance between point P and line segment AB.
Hence, OP
AB.

Theorem 2:Tangents drawn to a circle from an external point are equal in length.

class_10_maths_concept_011
Given:- Two tangents AB and AC from an external point A to points B and C on a circle.
To prove: AB = AC
Construction: Join OA, OB and OC.
Proof:In triangles OAB and OAC,

OBA = 90⁰ (Radius OB Tangent AB at B)
OCA = 90⁰ (Radius OC Tangent AC at C)
In triangles OBA and OCA,

OBA = OCA = 90⁰
OB = OC (Radii of the same circle)
OA = OA (Common side)
Thus, ΔOBA =̃ΔOCA (RHS congruence rule)
Hence, AB = AC (By C.P.C.T)
