is this question can be made from this solution? I am trying second method for this but don't know what to do ahead so please help.​

Answer 1

Answer:

hope it helps for solution wait

Answer 2

Given: A circle with center 'o' with OD= radius= 4cm

Let ∆ABC circumscribe the circle

Also,

BD= 8 cm

CD= 6 cm

To find: AB & AC

Const: Join OA, OC & OB

Let AC, AB, intersect circle at E & F respectively
