Circle
Category : 4th Class
Circle
Circle is a close curved line whose all points are at the same distance from a given point in a plane.
Centre of a Circle
The point from which all the points of the curved line are at the same distance is called centre of the circle.
In the given figure, 0 is the centre of the circle.
Radius of a Circle
Distance between the centre and the curved line of a circle is called radius of the circle.
In the given figure, OA is the radius of the circle. Note: All the radius of a circle are equal in length.
Chord of a Circle
Any line segment which joins the two points of the curved line of a circle is called chord of the circle.
In the figure, AB is the chord of the circle.
Diameter of a Circle
The longest chord of a circle is called diametre of the circle. In other word the chord which passes through the centre is called diametre of the circle.
In the figure, AB is the diametre of the circle
Note: All the diametres of a circle are equal in length.
Relation between Radius and Diametre of the Circle
In a circle, diametre is twice of the radius. Let radius of a circle is r then diameter of the circle is 2r.
In the given circle, OM and ON are the two radius of the circle whereas MN is the diametre of the circle. We can see, MN = OM + ON ..........(i)
We know that all the radius of a circle is equal in length. Thus OM = ON ..........(ii)
So, we can write the equation (i) as followings: ' \[\text{MN}=\text{OM}+\text{OM or MN}=\text{ON}+\text{ON}\] Thus MN = 20M or MN = 2ON Thus, we see that the diametre of a circle is twice of the radius.
Radius of a circle is 5 cm. Find the diametre of the circle.
Solution: \[\text{Diametre}=\text{2}\times \text{radius}\] \[=\text{2}\times \text{5cm}\] =10 cm.
Jack makes a line segment of 18 cm. He places an arrow at its one end. It is a :
(a) Line
(b) Line segment
(c) Angle
(d) Ray
(e) None of these
Answer (d)
Explanation- Jacks places arrow at only one end of the line segment which means the line segment can be extended up to infinity in only one direction. Thus it is a ray.

Measure the angle given below and choose the correct option.
(a) Acute angle
(b) Obtuse angle
(c) Right angle
(d) All of these
(e) None of these
Answer (a)
Explanation- Measurement of the given angle is\[\text{45}{}^\circ \]which is greater than\[0{}^\circ \]and smaller than\[\text{9}0{}^\circ \], thus it is an acute angle.

Jack makes a triangle ABC, in which AB = AC. Which one of the following is true?
(a)\[\angle \text{ABC}=\angle \text{BAC}\]
(b) \[\angle \text{ABC}=\angle \text{ACB}\]
(c)\[\angle \text{BAC}=\angle \text{ACB}\]
