Answer:
Intersecting chords theorem states that when two chords intersect each other inscale a circle, the product of their segments are equal also, diameter is the longest chord of the circle also now, draw a diameter of the circle passing through points P and M. it is the line XY as shown in the attachment
Length XY=2∗ radius =2∗13=26cm
MY=PY−PM=13−5=7cm
XM=XP+PM=13+5=18cm
By the intersecting chords theorem we have
CM∗PM=XM∗YM=18∗7=126
∴CM∗PM=126
Step-by-step explanation:
