Assertion and Reason type questions :
Question 1.
Assertion : If two circle in a circle are congruent, then the corresponding centred angles are also congruent.
Reason : The measure of an arc in a circle is equal to the measure of the central angle that subtends it.
Answer:
Assertion is true.
Reason is true and explains the assertion.
Explanation : The assertion is true because if two arcs in a circle are congruent, then they have the same length. Since the measure of an arc is equal to the length of the s arc divided by the radius of the circle, and the radius of the circle is the same for both arcs, it follows that the measures of the two arcs are equal. The reason is also true and explains why the corresponding central angles are congruent.
Question 2.
Assertion : If two angles are in the same segment of a circle, then they are congruent.
Reason : The angles in the same segment of a circle are subtended by the same chord.
Answer:
Assertion is true.
Reason is true and explains the assertion.
Explanation : The assertion is true because if two angles are in the same segment of a circle, then they are subtended by the same arc. Since the arc is part of a circle, it follows that the two angles are subtended by the same chord. Since the angles are inscribed in the same chord and subtend the same arc. they must be congruent. The reason is also true and explains why the angles in the same segment of a circle are congruent.
Question 3.
Assertion : In a cyclic quadrilateral, the opposite angles are supplementary.
Reason : The opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral are subtended by the same arc.
Answer:
Assertion is true.
Reason is true and explains the assertion :
Explanation : The assertion is true because a cyclic quadrilateral is a quadrilateral that
can be inscribed in a circle. This means that the opposite angles of the quadrilateral are inscribed in the same arc of the circle, and the measure of an inscribed angle is half the measure of the subtended arc. Since the opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are inscribed in the same arc, they must have equal measures, and since their sum is equal to 180 degrees (the measure of the entire circle), it follows that they are supplementary. The reason is also true and explains why the opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary.
Question 4.
Assertion : If a quadrilateral has two pairs of congruent adjacent sides, then it must be a cyclic quadrilateral.
Reason : A cyclic quadrilateral is a quadrilateral that can the inscribed in a circle.
Answer:
Assertion is false.
Reason is true.
Explanation : The assertion is false because a quadrilateral with two pairs of congruent adjacent sides is not necessarily a cyclic quadrilateral. For example, a rectangle has two pairs of congruent adjacent sides, but it is not a cyclic quadrilateral. The reason is true Because a cyclic quadrilateral is a quadrilateral that can be inscribed in a circle, and this definition does not depend on the lengths of its sides or angles.
Question 5.
Assertion : In a cyclic quadrilateral, the product of the diagonals is equal to the sum of the products of the opposite sides.
Reason : The diagonals of a cyclic quadrilateral are perpendicular.
Answer:
Assertion is true.
Reason is false.
Explanation : The assertion is true because in a cyclic quadrilateral, the product of the diagonals is equal to the sum of the products of the opposite sides. This property is known as Ptolemy’s theorem. The reason is false because the diagonals of a cyclic quadrilateral are not necessarily perpendicular. However, it is true that the perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a cyclic quadrilateral are concurrent, which is known as the circumcentre of the quadrilateral.
