Prove that:
( i ) ΔOPA ≅ ΔOQC
( ii ) ΔBPC ≅ ΔBQA

उत्तर
(i) In ΔOPA and ΔOQC,
OP = OQ ....[ radii of same circle ]
∠AOP = ∠COQ ... [ both 90° ]
OA = OC ... [ sides of the square ]
By Side- Angle - Side criterion of congruence.
∴ ΔOPA ≅ ΔOQC ...[ by SAS ]
(ii) Now, OP = OQ ...[ radii ]
and OC = OA ...[ sides of the square ]
∴ OC - OP = OA - OQ
⇒ CP = AQ ....(i)
In ΔBPC and ΔBQA,
BC = BA ...[ sides of the square ]
∠PCB = ∠QAB ...[ both 90° ]
PC = QA ...[ by ( i ) ]
By Side- Angle-Side criterion of congruence,
∴ ΔBPC ≅ ΔBQA ...[ by SAS ]
