Two circles meet at points p and q let ap and bp be diameters of the circles show that ab passes through the other intersection q?

This is false. The only way this would be true is if P=Q. Then AP+BP=AQ+QB=AB. The only thing that could be said, I guess, would be that AB intersects the angles PAQ and PBQ.

What is a straight line that passes through the origin called?
Intersection
A tangent circle passes always through the center of the circle?
A line joining the centres of two tangent circles also passes through the point of tangency.
A chord that passes through the center of a circle creates two arcs called?
Semi-circles
Do all diameters pass through the center of a circle?
Yes. In geometry, a diameter of a Circleis any straight Line_segmentthat passes through the center of the circle and whose endpoints are on the circle.
How many circles can passes through three non-collinear points?
Exactly one. No more and no less.
What if a right circular cone intersects a plane that passes through one of its nappes but the plane is not parallel to an edge of the cone?
Then the intersection is a hyperbola.
Why are conic section called conic sections?
Circles, ellipses, parabolas, and hyperbolas are called conic sections because they can be obtained as a intersection of a plane with a double- napped circular cone. If the plane passes through vertex of the double-napped cone, then the intersection is a point, a pair of straight lines or a single line. These are called degenerate conic sections. Because they are sections of a cone or a cone shaped object.
What circles of latitude passes through Australia?
Australia is located between the 10 S and 45 S lines of latitude. The tropic of Capricorn passes through Australia at about 23.5 degrees S latitude.
What comes first hectometers or diameters?
Hectometers and diameters are two different things. A hectometer is a measure of distance, about 100 meters or 302 ft; a diameter is a geometric term for the length of a chord that passes through the center of a circle. A diameter can be in any distance measure. Alphabetically, diameter comes first.
How many lines of symmetry does circles has?
A circle has an unlimited amount of symmetry lines, as long as the line passes through the middle point of the circle.
Name the line which joins both sides of a circle and passes through the centre?
It's surprising to hear it described that way, since very few circles have 'sides'.A line that passes through the center of the circle and extends as far as possible from the center withoutleaving the circle is the 'diameter'.
Does circles has exactly 2 lines of symmetry?
A circle has infinitely many points of symmetry. Every straight line that passes through the center of a circle is a line of symmetry.
