Theorem 1 Equal chords of a circle are equidistant from the centre
Given Two chords AB and CD of a circle C (O,r) such that AB = CD and OL To prove Chords AB and CD are equidistant from the centre O i.e, OL = OM. CONSTRUCTION Join OA and OC. PROOF Since the perpendicular from the centre to a chord bisects the chord Therefore, and, But,
Now, in right triangles OAL and OCM, we have and, So, by RHS criterion of convergence, we have Hence, equal chords of a circle are equidistant from the centre. | ![]() |
Theorem 2 Chords of a circle which are equidistant from the centre are equal.
Given Two chords AB and CD of a circle C(O,r) which are equidistant from its centre i.e., OL = OM, where OL AB and OM
CD.
TO PROVE Chords are equal i.e AB = CD CONSTRUCTION Join OA and OC PROOF Since the perpendicular from the centre of a circle to a chord bisects the chord. Therefore,
and,
In, triangles OAL and OCM , we have
and, So, by RHS< criterion of convergence, we have
Hence, the chords of a circle which are equidistant from the centre are equal. | ![]() |

It was a good experience with Abhyas Academy. I even faced problems in starting but slowly and steadily overcomed. Especially reasoning classes helped me a lot.
Being a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.
I have spent a wonderful time in Abhyas academy. It has made my reasoning more apt, English more stronger and Maths an interesting subject for me. It has given me a habbit of self studying
One of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
It was good as the experience because as we had come here we had been improved in a such envirnment created here.Extra is taught which is beneficial for future.
My experience was very good with Abhyas academy. I am studying here from 6th class and I am satisfied by its results in my life. I improved a lot here ahead of school syllabus.
My experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
A marvelous experience with Abhyas. I am glad to share that my ward has achieved more than enough at the Ambala ABHYAS centre. Years have passed on and more and more he has gained. May the centre flourish and develop day by day by the grace of God.
It has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice
Abhyas is a complete education Institute. Here extreme care is taken by teacher with the help of regular exam. Extra classes also conducted by the institute, if the student is weak.
