Answer:
The unknown side is 10 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
HERE,
- 6 cm is the radius of the circle given.
- Line PT is the tangent to the circle, PT = 8 cm
- Δ PTC is a right angled triangle
As, Radius subtends an angle of 90° at tangent.
∴ => ∠CTP = 90°
In ΔPTC :-
- PC = Hypotenuse (H)
- CT = Perpendicular (P) = 6 cm
- PT = Base (B) = 8 cm
By Pythagoras Theorem :-
=> H²= P² + B²
=> H² = 6² + 8²
=> H² = 36 + 64
=> H² = 100
=> H = 10 cm
The unknown side being PC is 10 cm.
Hope this helps !
