Example 6.
From the given figure name
Practice Test on Circle 4
(i) Centre of the circle.
(ii) All the chords.
(iii) All the diameters.
(iv) All the radii.

Solution:

(i) Centre of the circle is O.
(ii) PQ, RS, LM, and MS are the chords of the circle.
(iii) LM and RS are the diameters of the circle.
(iv) OL, OM, OR, and OS are the radii of the circle.


Example 7.
Choose the right answer.
(i) The circle with a radius 8 cm will have the diameter of __________.
(a) 16 cm (b) 12 cm (c) 11 cm (d) 10 cm
(ii) A circle has __________ lines of symmetry.
(a) 15 (b) 30 (c) infinite (d) 20

Solution:

(i) Given that the circle with a radius 8 cm.
To find the diameter of the circle, double the radius of the circle.
d = 2r = 2 (8 cm) = 16 cm.
The diameter of the circle = 16 cm
Therefore, the final answer is (a) 16 cm
(ii) A circle has infinite lines of symmetry.


Example 8.
Draw a circle of radius
(i) 3 cm
(ii) 5 cm

Solution:

(i) Given that the radius of the circle is 3 cm.
Let the centre be o. and the point on the circumference of the circle is M.
The figure is shown below.
Practice Test on Circle 5

(i) Given that the radius of the circle is 5 cm.

Example 9.
For the given circle:
(i) Name the Diameters
(ii) Name the Radii
(iii) Count the number of chords
Practice Test on Circle 7

Solution:

(i) The diameters of the circle = AB, CD.
(ii) The radii of the circle = OA, OB, OC, OD, OE, OF, OG.
(iii) The chords of the circle = AB, CD, EF, FG, GD.
Therefore, there are 5 chords available on the given circle.


Example 10.
Draw a circle whose diameter is 7 cm. Find its radius.

Solution:

Given that the diameter of the circle is 7 cm. Let the centre be O and the diameter of the circle is AB.
Practice Test on Circle 8
The radius of the circle is half of the diameter.
d = 2r.
7 = 2r
r = 3.5 cm.
Therefore, the radius of the circle is 3.5 cm.


Example 11.
Fill in the blanks:
(i) The line segment between the centre and a point on the circle is called………….
(ii) The distance around the circle is called as ………………….
(iii) If the radius is 2.3 cm, the diameter is …………..
(iv) The name of the Half of a circle is called a ……………………………….
(v) We name an ………………………………… by three points.
(vi) When the diameter is 12.6 cm, the radius is …………..

Solution:

(i) The line segment between the centre and a point on the circle is called the radius.
(ii) The distance around the circle is called the circumference.
(iii) If the radius is 2.3 cm, the diameter is 4.6cm.
(iv) The name of the Half of a circle is called a semi-circle.
(v) We name an arc by three points.
(vi) When the diameter is 12.6 cm, the radius is 6.3 cm.


Example 12.

Practice Test on Circle 9


Example 13.
Write true or false:
(i) All the radii of a circle are equal in length.
(ii) Chord of a circle is a segment having its end points on the circle.
(iii) If the distance of a point from the centre of a circle is more than its radius, the point lies in the interior of the circle.

Solution:

(i) True.
(ii) True.
(iii) False.


Example 14.
Draw a circle of radius 4 cm. Mark three points each.
(i) In the interior of the circle.
(ii) On the circle.
(iii) In the exterior of the circle.

Solution:

Practice Test on Circle 10
X is in the interior of the circle
N is on the circle.
Y is in the exterior of the circle.


Example 15.
A circle has a radius of 9 cm. Find the length of the longest chord of this circle?

Solution:

A circle has a radius of 9 cm.
The longest chord of this circle is a diameter.
The diameter of the circle is double the radius of the circle.
Therefore, the length of the longest chord of this circle = 2r = 2 (9 cm) = 18 cm.
