Two circles intersect at two points B and C. Through B, two line segments ABD and PBQ are drawn to intersect the circles at A, D and P, Q respectively (see Fig. 9.27). Prove that ∠ACP = ∠ QCD


Join chords∠ AP and ∠DQ.
For chord AP,
∠PBA=∠ACP (Angles in the same segment) .... (1)
For chord DQ,
∠DBQ=∠QCD (Angles in the same segment) …. (2)
ABD and PBQ are line segments intersecting at B.
∠PBA=∠DBQ (Vertically opposite angles) .... (3)
From equations (1), (2), and (3), we obtain
∠ACP=∠QCD

400 − 500 | 56 |
500 − 600 | 60 |
600 − 700 | 86 |
700 − 800 | 74 |
800 − 900 | 62 |
900 − 1000 | 48 |
