Question 13.
Case Study—1
Board Exams Term-ll is- shortly going to approach. The exams are going to be subjective; so a detailed understanding of all the chapters are needed for getting the good marks.
So, Mrs. sharma planned a surprise test for the students to check their knowledge of tangents and circle. She made a simple test and few questions of these test are given below:

Try to solve the following questions, to test your knowledge:
(A) If PA and PB are two tangents drawn to a circle with centre O from P such that ∠PBA = 50°, then what is the m ∠OAB? (2)
(B) In the figure below, AB is a chord of the circle and AOC is its diameter such that ∠ACB = 70°, then what is the measure of ∠BAT? (2)

Question 14.
Case Study—2
Sholu faces lots of trouble in picking the things, placed high up on the almirahs, wardrobes, etc. So she went to market, to find a solution for it. She saw a wooden stool, and found its length appropriate for her usage.

She bought that wooden bar stooL, so she could collect the things placed high.

The wooden stool has a square top of side 2 m and have a height of 6m above the ground. Also, each leg is inclined at a angle of 60° to the ground as shown in the figure.
(A) What is the length of each leg considering both are equal? (2)
(B) What is the length of side PQ as shown in the 2-D diagram of the stool? (2)
