Answer:

7.75 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a circle having centre O and AB is a tangent of the circle and OB is the radius of the circle = 2 cm. And join AO such that AO = 8 cm.

AB=\sqrt{(AO)^{2}- (OB)^{2}} cm

AB=\sqrt {8^{2}-2^{2}}=\sqrt{60}=7.745966692 cm\approx 7.75 cm

Find 4ab when (a+b)=15 and (a-b)=12
Volgvan
A + b = 15 ..... eq 1
a – b = 12 ...... eq 2

So a = 15 – b
Substitute in eq 2 :

15 – b – b = 12
15 – 2b = 12
–2b = 12 – 15
b = 1.5

So a = 15 – 3/2 = 13.5

4ab = 4 x 13.5 x 1.5 = 81
