CYCLIC QUADRILATERAL
Definition: A cyclic quadrilateral is described as any quadrilateral having its vertices lying on certain parts of the circumferences of a circle. i..e its four vertices.
Note: that opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral lies in opposite segment of a circle.
Theorem:
The opposite angle of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary “or angle in opposite segment are supplementary i.e. They sum up to 1800.
Proof:
Given: A cyclic quadrilateral ABCD.
To prove:< BAD +< BCD = 1800
Construction: join B and D to O the centre
Proof:< BOD = 2y (angle of centre = 2 x angle at circumference)
Reflex< BOD = 2x (angle at centre = 2x angle at circumference)
2x + 2y = 3600 (angle at a point)
2(x + y) = 3600
x + y = 3600
2
x + y = 1800
Example:Find the value of x x + 720=1800 (opp. Angle of a cyclic quadrilateral) x = 1800-720 = 1080 Evaluation Find x and y Corollary from Cyclic Quadrilateral Theorem: The exterior angle of a cyclic quadrilateral to the interior opposite angle. Proof: Given: A cyclic quadrilateral ABCD To Prove: x1 = x2 or x2 = x1 Construction: Extend DC to x Proof: x1 + y = 1800 (opp. Angle in a cyclic quad) x2 + y = 1800 (angle in a straight line) x1 = x2 = (180-y) < BCX =< BAD Example: In the fig. below PQRS are points on a circle centre O. QP is produced to x if< XPS = 770 and < QPS = 1800 – 770 = 1030 (angle on a straight line) PQO = 3600 – 3250 PQO = 350 Example BEC is a triangle BCE = 1800 – 850 (angle on a straight line) CBE = 620 (exterior angle of cyclic quadrilateral) x =< BEC = 1800 – (620 + 950) [sum of angles in a â ] 1800 – 1570 = 230 Evaluation In the figure below AB is a diameter of semi circle ABCD. If 2. In the fig, A,B,C,D are points on a circle such that Application of Cyclic Quadrilateral [Circle Geometry] Solution < NOM = 180 – (20 + 20)[ sum of angle in a triangle 1800 – 400 = 1400] 2 Evaluation Find the marked angle. GENERAL EVALUATION/REVISION QUESTIONS Find the marked angle in each of the following.Where a point O is the centre of the circle.
