Important exam questions with answers
What is a chord of a circle?
A chord is a line segment joining any two points on the circle. It is not necessary to pass through the center. (1 mark)
Explain the relationship between the length of a chord and the angle it subtends at the center of the circle.
The longer the chord, the larger the angle it subtends at the center. This means as the chord length increases, the central angle also increases. (2 marks)
If two chords of a circle are equal in length, what can be said about the angles they subtend at the center?
Equal chords subtend equal angles at the center of the circle. This is an important theorem in circle geometry. (2 marks)
Key concepts from this chapter
- Definition and parts of a circle: center, radius, diameter, chord, arc
- Angle subtended by a chord at a point on the circle and at the center
- Relationship between chord length and the angle subtended at the center
- Equal chords subtend equal angles at the center
- Visualizing circle theorems through diagrams enhances understanding

FAQ
Why is it important to understand the parts of a circle like chord and radius?
Understanding parts like chord and radius helps students grasp deeper circle theorems and solve geometry problems effectively. You can listen to detailed explanations on Harshali Academy.
How does visualizing angles subtended by chords help in learning geometry?
Visualizing these angles helps students understand theorems better than memorizing formulas alone. Harshali Academy’s audio lessons use diagrams to enhance this understanding.
Can I use Harshali Academy to prepare for exams on the topic of circles?
Yes, Harshali Academy provides clear explanations, examples, and exam-type questions on circles to help students prepare confidently.
What is the angle subtended by a chord at a point on the circle?
It is the angle formed between the two lines joining the ends of the chord to that point on the circle. Harshali Academy explains this concept with simple examples.
Are equal chords always at the same distance from the center?
Yes, equal chords are equidistant from the center of the circle. This property is covered in detail in Harshali Academy’s chapter on circles.
