  1. Objectives Find the lengths of segments formed by lines that intersect circles. Use the lengths of segments in circles to solve problems.

  2. J Example 1: Applying the Chord-Chord Product Theorem Find the value of x. 10(7) = 14(x) 70 = 14x 5 = x EF = 10 + 7 = 17 GH = 14 + 5 = 19

  3. Check It Out! Example 1 Find the value of x and the length of each chord. 8(x) = 6(5) 8x = 30 x = 3.75 AB = 6 + 5 = 11 CD = 3.75 + 8 = 11.75

  4. 6 in. Check It Out! Example 2 Suppose the length of chord AB that the archeologists measured was 12 in. Find QR. 6(6) = 3(QR) 12 = QR 12 + 3 = 15 = PR

  5. Example 3: Applying the Secant-Secant Product Theorem Find the value of x and the length of each secant segment. 112 = 64 + 8x 48 = 8x 6 = x ED = 7 + 9 = 16 EG = 8 + 6 = 14

  6. Check It Out! Example 3 Find the value of z and the length of each secant segment. 351 = 169 + 13z 182 = 13z 14 = z LG = 30 + 9 = 39 JG = 14 + 13 = 27

  7. Example 4: Applying the Secant-Tangent Product Theorem Find the value of x. ML JL = KL2 20(5) = x2 100 = x2 ±10 = x The value of x must be 10 since it represents a length.

  8. Check It Out! Example 4 Find the value of y. DE DF = DG2 7(7 + y) = 102 49 + 7y = 100 7y = 51
