Question

A Triangle ABC is drawn to circumscribe a circle of radius 4 cm. such that the segment BD and DC into which BC is divided by the point of contact D are of length 8 cm. and 6 cm. respectively. Find the sidez AB and AC​

Answer 1

Given : A circle whose radius is 4cm and is inscribed in a triangle ABC. BD =6cm and CD = 8cm. We know that the length of tangents drawn from the external point to a circle are of equal lengths. Hence, BE = BD =6cm and CF = CD = 8cm.
