Problem set 1

  1. In the following figure, O is the center of the circle, and AB is a diameter of the circle. Prove that \angle ACB = 90^\circ.


Problem set 2

In this problem set, two concentric circles are shown in the figures. O is the center of the circles.

  1. In the following figure, prove that \frac{EB}{OE} = \frac{DC}{OD}
  2. In the following figure, prove that \frac{DB}{OB} = \frac{CA}{OA}
  3. In the figure above, prove that \frac{DF}{OD} = \frac{CE}{OC}.
  4. In the figure above, prove that \frac{DF}{OB} = \frac{CE}{OA}.
  5. In the figure above, prove that \frac{BD+DF}{OB} = \frac{AC+CE}{OA}.
  6. In the figure above, prove that \frac{BD+DF+FH+HJ+JL}{OB} = \frac{AC+CE+EG+GI+IK}{OA}.
  7. Do you see how \frac{\mbox{arc length }BL}{\mbox{radius }OB} \approx \frac{\mbox{arc length }AK}{\mbox{radius }OA}?
  8. Do you see how \frac{\mbox{circumference of big circle}}{\mbox{radius of big circle}} \approx \frac{\mbox{circumference of small circle}}{\mbox{radius of small circle}}?
  9. Do you see how \frac{\mbox{circumference of big circle}}{\mbox{diameter of big circle}} \approx \frac{\mbox{circumference of small circle}}{\mbox{diameter of small circle}}?
