Answer to Problem 3PSA

  PR=20

Explanation of Solution

Given Information :

  (1)TR=10(2)QR=5

FormulaUsed :

If one secant and one tangent are drawn to a circle from one exterior point, then the square of the length of the tangent is equal to the product of the external secant segment and the total length of the secant

Calculation:

  LetPQbexTRTR=QRPR1010=5(5+x)5+x=20x=15PR=PQ+QRPR=15+5=20

b)

Answer to Problem 3PSA

  PQ=21

Explanation of Solution

Given Information :

  (1)TR=10(2)QR=4

Formula Used:

If one secant and one tangent are drawn to a circle from one exterior point, then the square of the length of the tangent is equal to the product of the external secant segment and the total length of the secant

Calculation:

  LetPQbexTRTR=QRPR1010=4(5+4)4+x=25x=21ThereforePQ=x
