Step 1
These angles are called the inscribed angles. So, the answer is a) an angle. When a chord intersects outside the circle, it also forms two angles. These angles are called the exterior angles. So, the answer is also a) an angle. When a secant intersects inside Show more…

If the locus of a point which moves so that the line joining the points of contact of the tangents drawn from it to the circle $x^{2}+y^{2}=b^{2}$ touches the circle $x^{2}+$ $y^{2}=a^{2}$, is the circle $x^{2}+y^{2}=c^{2}$, then $a, b, c$ are in (A) A. P. (B) G. P. (C) H. P. (D) none of these
