Question

Given below are two statements
Statement I =If two chords XY and ZT of a circle intersects internally at point P,then PX-PYPZ-PT
Statement II =If two chords XY and ZT of a circle intersect internally at point P,then PXZ and PTY are similar triangles
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below

• A. Both Statement I and Statement II are true
• B. Both Statement i and Statement II are false
• C. Statement I is true but Statement II is false
• D. Statement I is false but Statement II is true

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Both statements are true. Statement I is a consequence of the intersecting chords theorem, and Statement II correctly describes the similarity of triangles formed by intersecting chords in a circle.
