1. Find the values of the unknown letters.

Theorem 9 Two tangents drawn to a circle from the same point outside the circle are equal in length.

Proof :

Consider a circle, with centre $O$ . Choose a point $P$ outside the circle. Draw two tangents to the circle from point $P$ , that meet the circle at $A$ and $B$ . Draw lines $OA$ , $OB$ and $OP$ . The aim is to prove that $AP=BP$ . In $▵OAP$ and $▵OBP$ ,

1. $OA=OB$ (radii)
2. $\angle OAP=\angle OPB={90}^{\circ }$ ( $OA\perp AP$ and $OB\perp BP$ )
3. $OP$ is common to both triangles.

$▵OAP\equiv ▵OBP$ (right angle, hypotenuse, side) $\therefore AP=BP$

Theorem 10 The angle between a tangent and a chord, drawn at the point of contact of the chord, is equal to the angle which the chord subtends in the alternate segment.

Proof :

Consider a circle, with centre $O$ . Draw a chord $AB$ and a tangent $SR$ to the circle at point $B$ . Chord $AB$ subtends angles at points $P$ and $Q$ on the minor and major arcs, respectively. Draw a diameter $BT$ and join $A$ to $T$ . The aim is to prove that $\stackrel{^}{APB}=\stackrel{^}{ABR}$ and $\stackrel{^}{AQB}=\stackrel{^}{ABS}$ . First prove that $\stackrel{^}{AQB}=\stackrel{^}{ABS}$ as this result is needed to prove that $\stackrel{^}{APB}=\stackrel{^}{ABR}$ .

$\begin{array}{ccc}\hfill \stackrel{^}{ABS}+\stackrel{^}{ABT}& =& {90}^{\circ }\left(\mathrm{TB}\perp \mathrm{SR}\right)\hfill \\ \hfill \stackrel{^}{BAT}& =& {90}^{\circ }\left(\angle \phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}\mathrm{\text{'}s at centre}\right)\hfill \\ \hfill \therefore \stackrel{^}{ABT}+\stackrel{^}{ATB}& =& {90}^{\circ }\phantom{\rule{3pt}{0ex}}\left(\mathrm{sum of angles in}\phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}▵\mathrm{BAT}\right)\hfill \\ \hfill \therefore \stackrel{^}{ABS}& =& \stackrel{^}{ABT}\hfill \\ \hfill \mathrm{However,}\phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}\stackrel{^}{\mathrm{AQB}}& =& \stackrel{^}{ATB}\phantom{\rule{3pt}{0ex}}\left(\mathrm{angles subtended by same chord}\phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}\mathrm{AB}\right)\hfill \\ \hfill \therefore \stackrel{^}{AQB}& =& \stackrel{^}{ABS}\hfill \\ \hfill \\ \hfill \stackrel{^}{SBQ}+\stackrel{^}{QBR}& =& {180}^{\circ }\phantom{\rule{1.em}{0ex}}\left(\mathrm{SBT}\phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}\mathrm{is a str. line}\right)\hfill \\ \hfill \stackrel{^}{APB}+\stackrel{^}{AQB}& =& {180}^{\circ }\phantom{\rule{1.em}{0ex}}\left(\mathrm{ABPQ}\phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}\mathrm{is a cyclic quad}\right)\hfill \\ \hfill \therefore \stackrel{^}{SBQ}+\stackrel{^}{QBR}& =& \stackrel{^}{APB}+\stackrel{^}{AQB}\hfill \\ \hfill \stackrel{^}{\mathrm{AQB}}& =& \stackrel{^}{ABS}\hfill \\ \hfill \therefore \stackrel{^}{APB}& =& \stackrel{^}{ABR}\hfill \end{array}$

1. Find the values of the unknown letters.

Theorem 11 (Converse of [link] ) If the angle formed between a line, that is drawn through the end point of a chord, and the chord, is equal to the angle subtended by the chord in the alternate segment, then the line is a tangent to the circle.

Proof :

Consider a circle, with centre $O$ and chord $AB$ . Let line $SR$ pass through point $B$ . Chord $AB$ subtends an angle at point $Q$ such that $\stackrel{^}{ABS}=\stackrel{^}{AQB}$ . The aim is to prove that $SBR$ is a tangent to the circle. By contradiction. Assume that $SBR$ is not a tangent to the circle and draw $XBY$ such that $XBY$ is a tangent to the circle.

$\begin{array}{ccc}\hfill \stackrel{^}{ABX}& =& \stackrel{^}{AQB}\phantom{\rule{1.em}{0ex}}\left(\mathrm{tan}-\mathrm{chord theorem}\right)\hfill \\ \hfill \mathrm{However},\phantom{\rule{1.em}{0ex}}\stackrel{^}{\mathrm{ABS}}& =& \stackrel{^}{AQB}\phantom{\rule{1.em}{0ex}}\left(\mathrm{given}\right)\hfill \\ \hfill \therefore \stackrel{^}{ABX}& =& \stackrel{^}{ABS}\hfill \\ \hfill \mathrm{But},\phantom{\rule{1.em}{0ex}}\stackrel{^}{\mathrm{ABX}}& =& \stackrel{^}{ABS}+\stackrel{^}{XBS}\hfill \\ \hfill \mathrm{can only be true if},\phantom{\rule{1.em}{0ex}}\stackrel{^}{\mathrm{XBS}}& =& 0\hfill \end{array}$

If $\stackrel{^}{XBS}$ is zero, then both $XBY$ and $SBR$ coincide and $SBR$ is a tangent to the circle.

1. Show that Theorem [link] also applies to the following two cases:

$BD$ is a tangent to the circle with centre $O$ . $BO\perp AD$ . Prove that:
1. $CFOE$ is a cyclic quadrilateral
2. $FB=BC$

• $\stackrel{^}{COE}=\stackrel{^}{CBF}$
• $\stackrel{^}{ECO}=\stackrel{^}{FCB}$
• $\stackrel{^}{OEC}=\stackrel{^}{CFB}$
$\begin{array}{ccc}& \therefore & ▵COE|||▵CBF\phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}\left(3\phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}\angle \phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}\mathrm{\text{'}s equal}\right)\hfill \end{array}$
