प्रश्न
Prove that the common chord of two intersecting circles is bisected at right angles by the line of centres.
उत्तर
Given: Two interesting circles with centres C &D.
AB is their common chord.
To prove: AB bisected by CD at right angles.
Proof : CA = CB ...(radii)
∴ C lies on the right bisector of AB.
Similarly, D lies on the right bisector of AB.
Therefore, CD is the right bisector of AB.
Hence proved.
