The chord that goes through the center of a circle, the diameter, is the longest chord in a circle. Any other chord will be shorter than this. The farther a chord is away from the circle, the shorter it will be. This means that chord CD is shorter than chord AB.
Answer:
8a - 6b
You have to substitute in you other numbers:
a = 4 and b = 3
Your new equation would be:
8(4) - 6(3)
Now solve:
8 x 4 = 32
6 x 3 = 18
New problem:
32 - 18
= 14
So your answer is 14.

Answer:
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
-2 and 4 are 6 away
4 and 13 are 9 away
Thus it is 6/9 or 2/3
The tangent line is perpendicular to the radius from the center of the circle to the point of tangency.
ΔDCE is similar to ΔDBA
DC/DB=DE/DA
15/50=DE/40
DE=12
2 x 1/4 is the same as 1/4 + 1/4
