Two circles intersect each other at points C and D. Their common tangent AB touches the circles at point A and B. Prove that :
∠ ADB + ∠ ACB = 180°
उत्तर
Draw seg CD.
∠ DAB = ∠ ACD .... (1) Tangent secant angle theorem
∠ DBA = ∠ DCB .... (2) Tangent secant angle theorem
From (1) and (2)
∠ DAB + ∠ DBA = ∠ ACD + ∠ DCB
Now, ∠ ACB = ∠ ACD + ∠ DCB ...... (3)
In Δ ADB,
∠DAB + ∠ DBA + ∠ ADB = 180°.... (Sum of angles of a triangle.)
∴ ∠ACD + ∠DCB + ∠ADB = 180° ......From (1) and (2)
∴ ∠ACB + ∠ADB = 180° ......................From (3)

Two circles with centres O and O' touch each other at point L. Prove that, a tangent through L bisects the common tangent AB of the two circles at point M.
Given: AB is a common tangent of the two circles that touch each other at point L. ML is a tangent through point L.
To prove: M is a mid-point of the tangent AB or MA = MB.
Proof: From the figure,
M is an external point that draws two tangents, MA and ML to the circle with the centre O.
So, `square` = `square` ......(i)
Similarly, M draws two tangents ML and MB to the circle with the centre O'.
So, `square` = `square` ......(ii)
From the equations (i) and (ii),
`square` = `square`
Hence, the tangent at the point L, bisects the common tangent, AB of the two circles at point M.
