Answer:
Chord AB of the outer circle cuts the inner circle at C and D.
To prove: AC = BD
Construction: Draw OM = AB
Proof : Since OM⊥AB (by construction)
OM also ⊥ CD (ACDB is a line)
In the outer circle
AM = BM (1) (∵ OM bisects the chord AB)
In the inner circle CM = DM (2) (∵ OM bisects the chord CD)
From (1) and (2), we get
AM - CM = BM - DM
AC = BD
