The document summarizes geometry concepts that may appear on the CAT 2009 quantitative section, including:
1) Properties of chords, secants, and tangents drawn to a circle from an external point, such as the product of lengths of parts of intersecting chords being equal to the product of lengths of parts of the other chord.
2) Properties of cyclic quadrilaterals such as opposite angles being supplementary and the product of diagonals being equal to the sum of products of opposite sides.
3) When chords are drawn from a point on a circle circumscribed about an equilateral triangle to its three vertices, the length of the longest chord equals the sum of the other two chords.

CAT 2009 Quant questions
www.complore.com Geometry: • If two chords intersect, the product of the lengths of the two parts of one chord is equal to the product of the • lengths of the parts of the other chord. • When two secant segments are drawn to a circle from an external point, the product of the lengths of one • secant segment and its external segment equals the product of the lengths of the other secant segment and its • external segment. • When a secant segment and a tangent segment are drawn to a circle from an external point, the product of the • lengths of the secant segment and its external segment is equal to the square of the length of the tangent view more
www.complore.com Geometry: • In a cyclic quadrilaterals (If a quadrilateral is inscribed in a circle, it is called a cyclic quadrilateral), • opposite angles are supplementary.(Hence, rectangles or squares are the only parallelograms that can be inscribed in a circle.) • (Ptolemey’s Theoren) The product of the lengths of the diagonals is equal to the sum of the products of the • lengths of the two pairs of opposite sides. • When a circle is circumscribed about an equilateral triangle, and chords are drawn from any point on the • circle to the three vertices of the triangle, then the length of the longest chord is equal to the sum of the • lengths of the other two chords. view more
