In the figure, quadrilateral ABCD is circumscribing a circle with centre O
and AD⊥AB. If radius of incircle is 10cm, then the value of x is
Answers
Given :-
- O centre of circle .
- ABCD = Quadrilateral.
- radius of circle = 10cm.
- ∠BAD = 90°.
- AB, BC, CD and AD touch the inscribed circle at P, Q, R and S respectively.
- CR = 27cm.
- BC = 38cm.
To Find :-
- AB = x = ?
Solution :-
given that,
→ ∠BAD = 90°.
So,
→ OSAP is a square with side equal to radius = 10cm.
Then,
→ AP = 10cm.
Now,
→ CR = CQ. (Tangent segments to a circle from the same external point are congruent.)
So,
→ CQ = 27cm.
Then,
→ BQ = CB - CQ
→ BQ = 38 - 27
→ BQ = 11 cm.
again,
→ PB = BQ (Tangent segments to a circle from the same external point are congruent.)
Therefore,
→ PB = 11cm.
Hence,
→ AB = AP+BP =
→ x = 10 + 11
→ x = 21 cm.(Ans.)

Answer:
X=21
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Quadrilateral ABCD
CR=27cm
CB=38cm
Circumscribing a circle of center O
AD Perpendicular to AB
Radius of the circle= 10cm
To Find
x( AB)
Construction
Draw OP, at the point of contact of the tangent AB
Solution
CR=CQ ( Tangents from an External Point)
CB= CQ+BQ
38=27+BQ
38-27=BQ
11cm=BQ
BQ=BP (Tangents from an External Point)
BP=11cm
OS=10cm ( Radius of the circle)
AS=AP (Tangents from an External Point)
OP= 10cm (Radius of the circle)
Angle OSA=90
Angle OPA =90
Since two sides are equal and two opposite angles are 90 degree.
We can conclude that OSAP is Square.
Since, OSAP is a Square, then AP= 10cm
X=AB=AP+BP=11+10=21cm
X=21cm
