Multiple Choice
If a line segment joining two points subtends equal angles at two other points lying on the same side of the line containing the line segment, the four points lie on the circle. These four points are called _______
Cyclic points
Concyclic points
Collinear points
Non-collinear points
Answer explanation
"If a line segment joining two points subtends equal angles at two other points lying on the same side of the line containing the line segment, the four points lie on the circle. These four points are called concyclic points.
2.
Multiple Choice
Prove that any two vertices of a regular pentagon are concyclic. Click 'Yes' after proving this.
Yes
No
Answer explanation
Here, △QRS ≅ △TSR (By SAS criteria) Therefore ∠RQS = ∠STR That is RS subtends the same angle at Q and T. This proves that any two vertices of regular pentagon are concyclic.

Multiple Choice
PQRS is a parallelogram. A circle going through P and Q is drawn such that it intersects PS at A and QR at B. Prove that A, B, R and S are concyclic points. Click 'Yes' after proving it.
Yes
No
Answer explanation
PQRS is a parallelogram. A circle going through P and Q is drawn such that it intersects PS at A and QR at B. ∴Exterior ∠1 = Interior opposite ∠Q (Exterior angle property of cyclic quadrilateral) ∵ PQ ∥ RS and QR cuts them ∴∠Q + ∠R = 180⁰ (Sum of interior angles on both sides of transversal is 180⁰) or ∠1 + ∠R = 180⁰ [∵ ∠1 = ∠Q] ∴ ASRB is a cyclic quadrilateral. Hence, points A, B, R and S are concyclic points.

Multiple Choice
A, B and C are mid-points of the sides YZ, XZ and XY of a triangle and XD is perpendicular from X on YZ. Prove that A, B, C and D are concyclic. Click 'Yes' after proving it.
Yes
No
Answer explanation
Join CD, BD, AC and AB. C and A are mid-points of XY and YZ. ∴ AC ∥ XZ Similarly AB ∥ XY ∴ XCAB is a parallelogram. ∴ ∠CXB = ∠CAB (opposite angles of the parallelogram are equal)......(1) XDY is a right angle triangle and DC is the median. CX = DC and ∠1 = ∠2.......(2) Similarly, ∠3 = ∠4.......(3) Adding (2) and (3) ∠1 + ∠3 = ∠2 + ∠4 ∠CDX + ∠XDB = ∠CXD + ∠BXD ∠CDB = ∠CXB ∠CDB = ∠CXB = ∠CAB (proved) Hence, A, B, C and D are concyclic points.
