Balbharti Maharashtra State Board Class 7 Maths Solutions covers the 7th Std Maths Practice Set 43 Answers Solutions Chapter 11 Circle.
Question 1.
Choose the correct option.
If arc AXB and arc AYB are corresponding arcs and m(arc AXB) = 120° then m(arc AYB) =
(A) 140°
(B) 60°
(C) 240°
(D) 160°
Solution:
(C) 240°
Hint:
Measure of major arc = 360° – measure of corresponding minor arc
∴ m (arc AYB) = 360 – m (arc AXB)
∴ m (arc AYB) = 360 – 120
∴ m (arc AYB) = 240°
Question 2.
Some arcs are shown in the circle with centre ‘O’ Write the names of the minor arcs, major arcs and semicircular arcs from among them.
Solution:
Minor arcs : arc QXP, arc PR, arc RY, arc YQ, arc QX, arc XP, arc PRY.
Major arcs : arc PYQ, arc PQR, arc RQY, arc XPQ, arc XQP, arc XQR
Semicircular arcs : arc QPR, arc QYR.
Question 3.
In a circle with centre O, the measure of a minor arc is 110°. What is the measure of the major arc PYQ?
Solution:
Measure of major arc = 360° – measure of corresponding minor arc
∴ m (arc PYQ) = 360 – 110
∴ m (arc PYQ) = 250°
∴ The measure of the major arc PYQ is 250°.
