(2) seg PM ⊥ chord AB
In right angled triangle ∆ APM
AM2 + PM2 = AP2 ........ (by Pythagoras theorem)
∴ AM2 + 62 = 102
∴ AM2 = 100 - 36 P
∴ AM2 = 64

 The perpendicular drawn from the centre of the circle to the chord bisects
the chord.
∴ AB = 2 × AM
∴ AB = 2 × 8
∴ AB = 16 cm
∴ lenght of chord AB = 16 cm.

Q. 4
(1) A
: In ∆ ABC, ∠ ABC = 90o
Given
D To Prove : AC2 = AB2 + BC2
Construction : Draw seg BD perpendicular
B C on side AC. A-D-C.
Proof : In right angled ∆ ABC,
seg BD ⊥ hypotenuse AC ...... (Construction)
∴ ∆ ABC ∼ ∆ ADB ∼ ∆ BDC ...(Similarity of right angled triangles)
∆ ABC ∼ ∆ ADB
AB BC AC
∴ AD = DB = AB ...... (corresponding sides)
AB AC
∴ AD= AB
∴ AB2 = AD × AC ....... (I)
∆ ABC ∼ ∆ BDC

 BC AC
∴ = BC
DC
∴ BC2 = AC × DC ....... (II)
Adding (I) and (II)
AB2 + BC2 = AD × AC + AC × DC
∴ AB2 + BC2 = AC (AD + DC)
∴ AB2 + BC2 = AC × AC ...... (A-D-C)
∴ AB2 + BC2 = AC2

(2) A(-4, -7), B(-1, 2), C(8, 5), D(5, -4)

According to distance formula,
AB =  1   4  2   2   7  2
∴ AB = 32 + 9 2
∴ AB = 9 + 81
∴ AB = 90 ...... (1)
BC = 8  ( 1)  ( 5  2) 2
2

∴ BC = 9 2 + 32
∴ BC = 81 + 9
∴ BC = 90 ...... (2)
CD = ( 5  8) 2  ( 4  5) 2
∴ CD = ( 3) 2  ( 9 ) 2
∴ CD = 9 + 81
∴ CD = 90 ....... (3)

AD = 5  ( 4 )2   4  ( 7)2
∴ AD = 9 2 + 32
∴ AD = 81 + 9
∴ AD = 90 ....... (4)
From (1), (2), (3) and (4)
AB = BC = CD = AD
∴ c ABCD is a rhombus.

CD = 40 m.
∴ AC = CD = 40 m. ....... (From (1) )
AB = AC + CB
AB = (40 + 20 3 ) m.
∴ height of the tree = (40 + 20 3 ) m.

Q. 6
(1) r = 6.6 cm
length of corn = h = 11.2 cm
l2 = h2 + r2
l2 = (11.2)2 + (6.6)2
l2 = 125.44 + 43.56
l2 = 169
l = 13
Curved surface area of cone shaped corn = πrl
