Q. If two chords AB and CD intersect at point E inside a circle, and AE = 3, EB = 5, CE = 4, what is the length of ED?

A. 2
B. 3
C. 4
D. 5

Solution

Using the intersecting chords theorem: AE * EB = CE * ED. Thus, 3 * 5 = 4 * ED, so 15 = 4 * ED, giving ED = 15/4 = 3.75.

Correct Answer: A — 2

Q. If two chords intersect inside a circle and the lengths of the segments are 3 cm and 4 cm for one chord, and 2 cm and x cm for the other, what is the value of x?

A. 5
B. 6
C. 7
D. 8

Solution

Using the intersecting chords theorem: 3 * 4 = 2 * x, so 12 = 2x, thus x = 6.

Correct Answer: B — 6

Q. If two chords intersect inside a circle, and the lengths of the segments of one chord are 4 cm and 6 cm, what is the length of the other chord if its segments are x cm and y cm?

A. 10
B. 12

D. 16

Solution

Using the intersecting chords theorem: 4 * 6 = x * y. If x + y = 10, then x = 4 and y = 6.

Correct Answer: C — 14

Q. If two forces of 5 N and 3 N act in the same direction, what is the resultant force?

Q. If two tangents are drawn from a point outside a circle, and the lengths of the tangents are 7 cm and 7 cm, what is the distance from the point to the center of the circle?

A. 7√2
B. 7
C. 14
D. 10

Solution

The distance from the point to the center is equal to the length of the tangent divided by cos(45°), which is 7√2.

Correct Answer: A — 7√2

Q. If two tangents are drawn from a point outside a circle, and the lengths of the tangents are 7 cm each, what is the distance from the point to the center of the circle?

A. 7√2
B. 7
C. 14
D. √49

Solution

The distance from the point to the center is given by the formula: distance = √(tangent length² + radius²). Here, radius = 7, so distance = √(7² + 7²) = √(49 + 49) = √98 = 7√2.

Correct Answer: A — 7√2
