Question

in the given figure, PA=6,PB=4,PC=8,Find PD

Answer 1

Hey there!

Given,

AP = 6 cm
PB = 4 cm
CP = 8 cm

PD = ?

As AB and CD are two chords that intersect at O,
Therefore,

AP × PB = CP × PD

6 × 4 = 8 × PD

PD = 24/8

PD = 3

Hence, measure of PD is 3cm

HOPE IT HELPED ^_^

Answer 2

Since the segments AB and CD are chords of the circle and they intersect each other.
AP×PB=CP×PD
6×4=8×PD
24=8×PD
PD=24÷8
PD=3
