a d c b THE PRODUCT OF THE PARTS OF ONE CHORD = THE PRODUCT OF THE PARTS OF THE OTHER CHORD ab = cd
7 5 4 x 7x = 4(5) 7x = 20 7x= 20 7 7 X = 2.86
Radius = 6, so one part= 6+x and the other part= 6-x The diameter is perpendicular to the chord, so it bisects the chord 6 . x FOIL 4 (6+x) (6-x) = 4∙4 36-x²=16 36-x²-36 = 16-36 -x²= -20 -x²/-1 = -20/-1 x² = 20 √x² = √20 X = 4.47
Whole segment Outside part B A The outside part of segment AB x the whole segment AB = the outside part of segment CB x the whole segment CB C
5(x+5) = 7(15+7) little+little = big 5 x 7 Outside x Whole = Outside x Whole 15 5x+25 = 7(22) 5x+25 = 154 5x = 129 X = 25.8
Tangent (the outside is also the whole) x 4 Outside x Whole = Outside x Whole x∙x = 4∙9 9 x² = 36 √x² = √36 X = 6 We know the whole so we don’t need to add the little parts

Answers 1) 7X = 8(5) 7X = 40 X = 40/7 X = 5.71 2) 3(X+3) = 5(14) 3X+9 = 70 3X+9-9 = 70-9 3X = 61 X = 61/3 X = 20.33
