The intersecting secant-tangent theorem says that
where T is the point at which line segment PO touches the circle. Similarly,
so we have
OP is of course as long as itself, and AO and BO are radii of the same circle so they have the same lengths.
This means triangles APO and BPO are congruent, which means angles APO and BPO are congruent, so angle APB is bisected by PO.
Answer:
24 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
One member of the gardening club can alone plant flowers in 12 hours.
So in 1 hour he can plant 1/12 of the flowers.
Let the time required by the second member of the club to plant flowers alone be x hours.
Then in 1 hour he can plant 1/x of the flowers.
Now when the two members work together,each hour they can plant:
of the flowers.
But they can together complete the job in 8 hours. So in one hour they plant 1/8 of the flowers.
=>
=>
=> x=24
So the second member can plant the flowers alone in 24 hours
