Given the radius r and the tangent line AB, the length of the line OA is 24 units

<h3>How to determine the length OA?</h3>

The radius r and the tangent line AB meet at a right angle.

By Pythagoras theorem, we have:

AB² = OA² + r²

So, we have:

24² = OA² + 7²

Rewrite as:

OA² = 24² - 7²

Evaluate

OA² = 527

Take the square root of both sides

OA = 23

Hence, the length of OA is 24 units
