REQUISITES/LINKAGE WITH PREVIOUS TOPIC/LECTURE: The Bisectors of Angles of a given triangle. Given: ABC is a triangle Required : To draw the bisectors of angles A, B and C Construction: 1.Draw the  ABC 2.With point B as a centre draw an arc of any radius, intersecting the sides BC and BA at point L and M ANGLES BISECTORS OF  ABC 3. Take point L as a centre and draw an arc of any radius. 4.Now take M as a centre and with the same radius draw the another arc, which cuts the previous arc at point P 5.Join point P to B and produce it. Thus BP is the bisector of <B 6.Similarly, repeat steps (2) to (5) to draw CQ and AR the bisectors of <C and <A respectively. Hence BP, CQ and AR are the required bisectors of angles of a  arc concurrent. Note: The angles bisectors intersect at a point I, which is called in centre and the bisectors of angles of a  are concurrent. How to draw the right bisectors of sides of a triangle ABC. Given: A  ABC Required: To draw right bisectors of the sides AB, BC and CA

CONSTRUCTION : 1.Draw the  ABC. 2.To draw right bisector of the side AB, with B as a centre and radius more than half of AB, draw arcs on either sides of AB. 3.Now with A as a centre and with the same radius, draw arcs on either sides of AB cutting previous arcs at P and Q. 4.Join P and Q Thus PQ is the right bisector of AB, 5.Similarly, repeat steps (2) to (4) and draw ST and LM, the right bisectors of BC and AC respectively. Hence PQ, ST and LM arc the required right bisector of the sides AB, BC and AC respectively of  ABC. Note: Right bisectors of  ABC pass through O. So they arc concurrent. RIGHT BISECTORS OF  ABC

COVERAGE OF THE LESSON ACCORDING TO ITS SYNOPSIS: 1. Construction of Circum Circle Construct the  PQR in which mPQ = mQR = 8cm, m<Q =60°. Draw the “Circum Circle” of the  PQR. Circle: A set of points of a plane which are equidistant from a given (fixed) point is called a CIRCLE: The fixed point is called the “Centre” of the Circle. Circum Circle: A circle which passes through the three vertices of a triangle is called “Circum Circle” (or circumscribed circle) and the centre is called “Circum Centre” of the circle. Given: A  PQR, in which mPQ =mQR = 8cm and m<Q=60° Required: Draw the Circum circle of  PQR.

CONSTRUCTION: Draw a line segment QR = 8cm. At point Q draw an <RQX = 60° From QX, cut off PQ = 8 cm. Join P to R. Thus  PQR is constructed. Draw the right bisector LL’ of side QR. Draw the right bisector MM’ of side PR. Let them intersect each other at point “O”. With Centre “O” and radius equal to OR, draw a circle, which passes through the vertices of  PQR. Hence it is our required circum circle is constructed (constructed) CIRCUM CIRCLE OF  PQR

2. CONSTRUCTION OF ESCRIBED CIRCLE : 2. Construction of Escribed Circle Question: Construct  ABC in which mAB = 7.5cm mBC = 7.5cm, m<B=30° Draw the escribed circle opposite to Vertex B. Given:  ABC, in which mAB = mBC = 7.5cm, and m<B=30° Required: Draw the escribed circle opposite to Vertex B

CONSTRUCTION: Draw a line segment BC = 7.5cm. At point B, draw an < CBX=30° From BX, cut off AB = 7.5 cm. Join A to C. Thus  ABC is constructed. Produce (extend) BC beyond C to BY Produce BA to BX. Making two exterior angles <ACY and <CAX. Draw the bisector AA’ and CC’ of <CAX and <ACY respectively let them intersect each other at point “O”. From point “O” draw OD perpendicular on BY. With centre O and radius equal to OD draw a circle. Which touching BA, BY and AC. This is called the escribed circle opposite to vertex B ESCRIBED CIRCLE OPPOSITE TO VERTEX “B” OF  ABC ESCRIBED CIRCLE: A circle which touches one side of a triangle externally and the other two sides produced internally.

3.CONSTRUCTION OF IN CIRCLE Question: Construct the  ABC, in which m<B = 60°, mBC = 7.5cm, mAB = 7cm. Draw the in circle (inscribed circle) of  ABC. Solution Given: A  ABC, in which m<B = 60°, mBC = 7.5cm and mAB = 7cm. Required: Draw the in circle of  ABC. In-Circle: The circle which touches the three sides of a triangle is called in-circle or inscribed circle of the triangle and its centre is called “In-Centre”.

CONSTRUCTION: Draw a line segment BC = 7.5cm At point “B” draw an <CBX = 60°. From BX, cut of AB = 7cm. Join A to C. Thus  ABC is constructed. Draw the bisector BB’ of >B. Draw the bisector CC’ of >C (et them intersect each other at point O. From point “O” draw OD perpendicular on BC. With Centre “O” and radius equal to OD draw a circle. The circle touches the three sides of  ABC Hence it is our required in-circle is constructed.

4. CONSTRUCTION OF MEDIANS OF A TRIANGLE Question: Construct a  ABC, such that mAB = 6.8cm, mBC = 8cm and mAC = 10.0cm. Draw the medians of  ABC. Median of a Triangle: Line segments joining, the vertices of a triangle to the mid points of the opposite sides are called medians of the triangle. Given: A triangle ABC, in which mAB = 6.8cm, mBC = 8cm and mAC = 10.0cm. Required: Draw the medians of  ABC.

CONSTRUCTION: Draw a line segment BC = 8cm From point B draw an arc of radius 6.8cm. From point C draw an arc of radius 10cm which intersects the previous arc at point A. Join A to B and A to C. Thus  ABC is constructed. Draw the mid point D of Side BC Draw the mid point E of Side AC Draw the mid point F of Side AB Join A to D, B to E and C to F. Thus AD, BE and CF are our required medians of  ABC, which meet in a point O. It may be noted that medians of every triangle are concurrent (i.e. meet in one point) and their point of concurrency called “centraid”, divides each of them in the ratio of 2:1. By actual measurement it can be prove that mAO = mBO = mCO = 2 mOD mOE mOF 1

MEDIANS OF  ABC

5.CONSTRUCTION OF ALTITUDES OF A TRIANGLE Question: Take any triangle ABC and draw its altitudes. Given: A  ABC Required: To draw altitudes of the  ABC Altitude: A perpendicular from the vertex of a triangle to the opposite side is called an altitude of the triangle.

CONSTRUCTION: 1.Draw a  ABC 2. Take a point A as centre and draw an arc of suitable radius, which cuts BC at points D and E. 3. From D as centre, draw an arc of radius more than ½ mDE. 4. Again from point E draw another arc of same radius, cutting first arc at point F. 5. Join the points A and F, such that AF intersects BC at point P. Then AP is the altitude of the  ABC from the vertex A. 6. Similarly, repeat the steps (2) to (5) and draw BQ and CR, the altitudes of  ABC from the vertices B and C respectively. Hence AP, BQ and CR are the required altitudes of  ABC, which meet in a point O. The points P, Q and R are called the feet of these altitudes. Note: It may be remember that the altitudes of a triangle are always concurrent. The point of concurrency is called the “ORTHO CENTRE”

COVERAG OF THE LESSON: CIRCLE: A set of points of a plane which are equidistant from a fixed (given) point is called a circle. The fixed point is called the centre of the circle. Centre of Circle RIADIUS OF THE CIRCLE: The distance of any point of the circle from its centre is called “radius” of the circle. It may be noted. C A 2cm Radius is a number not a line segment. The line segment joining the centre with any point of the circle is called the “Radial Segment”. In figure we see a circle whose centre is C and radius 2cm and CA is the radial segment.

CHORD OF THE CIRCLE: The line segment whose end points are any two points of the circle is called a Chord of the circle. In fig. CD is the chord. DIAMETER: A chord which passes through the centre of the circle is called a diameter. In fig PQ is a diameter. CIRCUMFERENCE OF A CIRCLE: The length of the curve joining all points of a circle is called circumference of the circle. Mathematically it is denoted by C = 2   Where  is the radius of the circle and  = 22 or  : It is the ratio of circumference to its diameter is called . CD P Q

TANGENT: If there is only one point Common between a line and a circle, the line is called a tangent to the circle. OR A line which is perpendicular to the outer end of the radius is called a tangent. OR A line which touches the circle at only one point is called a tangent. In Fig. PQ is a tangent. SECANT: If there are two distinct points common to a line and a circle, the line is called a secant of the circle. In fig. DE is a secant. SEMI-CIRCLE: The portion of a circle intercepted by a diameter is called semi-circle. In the figure diameter AB divides the circle in two equal (congruent) parts. Each is a semi circle. D E P Q A B
