Question 1

A chord of length 6 cm is drawn in a circle of radius 5 cm. Calculate its distance from the centre of the circle.Solution 1

Let AB be the chord and O be the centre of the circle.

Let OC be the perpendicular drawn from O to AB.

We know, that the perpendicular to a chord, from the centre of a circle, bisects the chord.

 AC = CB = 3 cm

Question 2

A chord of length 8 cm is drawn at a distance of 3 cm from the centre of the circle. Calculate the radius of the circle.Solution 2

Let AB be the chord and O be the centre of the circle.

Let OC be the perpendicular drawn from O to AB.

We know, that the perpendicular to a chord, from the centre of a circle, bisects the chord.

Hence, radius of the circle is 5 cm.Question 3

The radius of a circle is 17.0 cm and the length of perpendicular drawn from its centre to a chord is 8.0 cm. Calculate the length of the chord.Solution 3

Let AB be the chord and O be the centre of the circle.

Let OC be the perpendicular drawn from O to AB.

We know, that the perpendicular to a chord, from the centre of a circle, bisects the chord.

 AC = CB

Question 4

A chord of length 24 cm is at a distance of 5 cm from the centre of the circle. Find the length of the chord of the same circle which is at a distance of 12 cm from the centre.Solution 4

Let AB be the chord of length 24 cm and O be the centre of the circle.

Let OC be the perpendicular drawn from O to AB.

We know, that the perpendicular to a chord, from the centre of a circle, bisects the chord.

Question 5

In the following figure, AD is a straight line, and O is the centre of both the circles. If OA = 34cm, OB = 20 cm and OP = 16 cm; find the length of AB.

Solution 5

For the inner circle, BC is a chord and .

We know that the perpendicular to a chord, from the centre of a circle, bisects the chord.

 BP = PC

For the outer circle, AD is the chord and.

We know that the perpendicular to a chord, from the centre of a circle, bisects the chord.

 AP = PD

By Pythagoras Theorem,

OA² = OP² + AP²

=> AP² = (34)² - (16)² = 900

=> AP = 30 cm

AB = AP - BP = 30 - 12 = 18 cmQuestion 6

Question 7

Two parallel chords are drawn in a circle of diameter 30.0 cm. The length of one chord is 24.0 cm and the distance between the two chords is 21.0 cm; find the length of another chord.Solution 7

Since the distance between the chords is greater than the radius of the circle (15 cm), so the chords will be on the opposite sides of the centre.

Let O be the centre of the circle and AB and CD be the two parallel chords such that AB = 24 cm.

Let length of CD be 2x cm.

Drop OE and OF perpendicular on AB and CD from the centre O.
