2. Assertion: In the given figure, O is the centre of the circle. If ∠AOC = 140°, then
∠ABC = 110°. Reason: In a cyclic quadrilateral, opposite angles are supplementary.
3. Assertion: In the given figure, ∠BAO = 30° and ∠BCO = 40°. Then the measure
of ∠AOC = 60°. Reason: The angle subtended by an arc of a circle at the centre is
twice the angle subtended by that arc on the remaining part of the circle.
4. Assertion: AB and CD are two parallel chords of a circle whose diameter is AC.
Then AB ≠ CD. Reason: The perpendicular from the centre of a circle bisects the
chord.
5. Assertion: In the given figure, O is the centre of the circle of radius 5 cm. If OP ⊥
AB, OQ ⊥ CD, AB || CD, AB = 6 cm, and CD = 8 cm, then PQ = 6 cm. Reason:
Perpendicular bisectors of two chords of a circle intersect at its centre.
6. Assertion: The length of a chord which is at a distance of 5 cm from the centre of a circle of
radius 10 cm is 17.32 cm. Reason: The perpendicular from the centre of a circle to a chord
bisects the chord.
10. Assertion: The length of a tangent drawn from an external point to a circle is the same for all
points on the circle.
Reason: The tangent at any point of a circle is perpendicular to the radius through the point of
contact.
11. Assertion: A line drawn perpendicular to a chord passes through the center of the circle.
Reason: The perpendicular bisector of a chord of a circle always passes through the center of
the circle.
12. Assertion: If two arcs of a circle are congruent, then their corresponding chords are equal.
Reason: Equal chords of a circle subtend equal angles at the center.
14. Assertion: In a circle, the perpendicular drawn from the center of the circle to a chord bisects
the chord.
Reason: A circle is symmetric about its center.
15. Assertion: Two tangents can be drawn from an external point to a circle.
Reason: The tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal in length.
17. Assertion: In a circle, a tangent and a radius drawn to the point of contact are perpendicular
to each other.
Reason: A tangent to a circle touches it at exactly one point.
