12th Maths 6th Chapter Solutions Question 1.
Prove by vector method that if a line is drawn from the centre of a circle of a circle to the midpoint of a chord, then the line is perpendicular to the chord.
Solution:
Let ‘C’ be the mid point of the chord AB
Take ‘O’ on the centre of the circle.
Since, OA = OB (Radii)

Using vector method, prove that if the diagonals of a parallelogram are equal, then it is a rectangle.
Solution:
Let ABCD be a parallelogram
To prove ABCD be a rectangle provided the diagonals are equal.
Ex 6.1 Class 12 Samacheer Kalvi
\(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{AB}}\) ⊥r to \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{BC}}\)
⇒ ABCD is a rectangle.

Ex 6.1 Class 12 Question 6.
Prove by vector method that the area of the quadrilateral ABCD having diagonals AC and BD is \(\frac{1}{2}|\overrightarrow{\mathrm{AC}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{BD}}|\)
Solution:
Vector area of quadrilateral ABCD = {Vector area of ∆ABC} + {Vector area of ∆ ACD}
