Geometry: Circles Practice MCQ

Question Statement:

circles 04 -16106176
In the circle shown in the figure, the length of the arc ACB is 3 times the length of the arc AB. What is the length of the line segment AB ?

3
4
5
circles05 -88879072
circles06 -73832840

Explanation:

Correct Answer: E

Since the length of the arc ACB is 3 times the length of the arc AB, the angle made by the arc ACB must be three times the angle made by the arc AB. Now, the two arcs together make 360° at the center of the circle. Hence, the smaller angle, the angle made by the arc AB, must equal one-quarter of the full angle, which is 360°. One-quarter of 360° is 90°. Hence, circles07 -16695796. Hence, triangle AOB is a right triangle, and applying The Pythagorean Theorem to the triangle yields

circles08 -31794930

OA = OB = radius of circle = OC = 3 (from the figure)

The answer is (E).
