In the given figure, circles with centres C and D touch internally at point E. D lies on the inner circle. Chord EB of the outer circle intersects inner circle at point A. Prove that, seg EA ≅ seg AB.
उत्तर
Circles with centres C and D touch internally at point E.
Join ED.
By theorem of touching circles, points E, C and D are collinear.
Since D lies on the inner circle with centre C, therefore, ED is the diameter of the inner circle.
∴ ∠EAD = 90º (Angle inscribed in a semi-circle is a right angle)
EB is the chord of the outer circle with centre D.
∴ Point A is the mid-point of chord EB. (Perpendicular drawn from the centre of a circle on its chord bisects the chord)
⇒ seg EA ≅ seg AB

In the adjoining figure circles with centres X and Y touch each other at point Z. A secant passing through Z intersects the circles at points A and B respectively. Prove that, radius XA || radius YB. Fill in the blanks and complete the proof.
Construction: Draw segments XZ and YZ.
Proof:
By theorem of touching circles, points X, Z, Y are `square`.
∴ ∠XZA ≅ `square` ...(opposite angles)
Let ∠XZA = ∠BZY = a ...(I)
Now, seg XA ≅ seg XZ ...[Radii of the same circle]
∴∠XAZ = `square` = a ...[isosceles triangle theorem](II)
Similarly,
seg YB ≅ seg YZ ...[Radii of the same circle]
∴∠BZY = `square` = a ...[isosceles triangle theorem](III)
∴ from (I), (II), (III),
∠XAZ = `square`
∴ radius XA || radius YZ ...[`square`]
