Que : 1 (A) Answer The Following Questions in Brief. [20]

1. The bisector of ∠ B and ∠C of a quadrilateral ABCD intersect in P, show that P is


equidistant from the opposite sides AB and CD.
2. Prove that the common chord of two intersecting circles is bisected at right angles
by the line of centres.
3. Without using set squares or protractor construct a triangle ABC in which AB = 4
cm, BC = 5 cm and ∠ABC = 120°.
(i) Locate the point P such that ∠BAp = 90° and BP = CP.
(ii) Measure the length of BP.

4. State and draw the locus of a swimmer maintaining the same distance from a
lighthouse.
5. l is the perpendicular bisector of line segment PQ and R is a point on the same side
of l as P. The segment QR intersects l at X. Prove that PX + XR = QR.
6. Given a Δ ABC with unequal sides. Find a point which is equidistant from B and C as
well as from AB and AC.
7. Using only a ruler and compass construct ∠ABC = 120°, where AB = BC = 5 cm.
(i) Mark two points D and E which satisfy the condition that they are equidistant
from both ABA and BC.
(ii) In the above figure, join AD, DC, AE and EC. Describe the figures:
(a) AECB, (b) ABD, (c) ABE.
8. Without using set squares or protractor construct:
(i) Triangle ABC, in which AB = 5.5 cm, BC = 3.2 cm and CA = 4.8 cm.
(ii) Draw the locus of a point which moves so that it is always 2.5 cm from B.
(iii) Draw the locus of a point which moves so that it is equidistant from the sides

BC and CA.
(iv) Mark the point of intersection of the loci with the letter P and measure PC.
9. Without using set squares or protractor.
(i) Construct a ΔABC, given BC = 4 cm, angle B = 75° and CA = 6 cm.
(ii) Find the point P such that PB = PC and P is equidistant from the side BC and BA.

point on line segment PQ, which is equidistant from AB and AC? Does such a point
always exist?
