Question

In the adjacent figure , AP=3 cm and PC = 8cm . Find the length of tangent CD
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

AP=PB

=3cm

PC=8cm

PC=PB+PC

8=3+BC

B=5

BC=CD

CD will be 5 cm

Answer 2

Answer:

Given AP =3

PC=8

AS PER THE CIRCLR THEOREM

the tangent at a point source to the circle is equal so.

by question

AP =PB....... 1

BC =DC.... 2

PC=PB+BC

8=AP+BC....[1]EQN.

8-3=BC

5=BC

CD=5.....[2] ANS.
