Short Answer TypeThe ratio of the height of a tower and the length of its shadow on the ground is √3:1. What is the angle of elevation of the sun?
Volume and surface area of a solid hemisphere are numerically equal. What is the diameter of the hemisphere?
If the distance between the points (4, k) and (1, 0) is 5, then what can be the possible values of k?
Prove that tangents drawn at the ends of a diameter of a circle are parallel to each other.
Find the value of k for which the equation x2 + k(2x + k − 1) + 2 = 0 has real and equal roots.
Draw a line segment of length 8 cm and divide it internally in the ratio 4: 5.
Steps of construction.
In the given figure, PA and PB are tangents to the circle from an external point P. CD is another tangent touching the circle at Q. If PA = 12 cm, QC = QD = 3 cm, then find PC + PD.
Given: PA and PB are the tangents to the circle.
PA = 12 cm
QC = QD = 3 cm
To find: PC + PD
PA = PB = 12 cm
(The lengths of tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal)
Similarly, QC = AC = 3 cm
and QD = BD = 3 cm.
Now, PC = PA − AC = 12 − 3 = 9 cm
Similarly, PD = PB − BD = 12 − 3 = 9 cm
Hence, PC + PD = 9 + 9 = 18 cm.
