Question

What is the square root of 64, 81,144,and 24??

Answer 1

Use the secant tangent power theorem. the length of the tangent (vertex to point of intersection) squared = the part of the secant outside the circle times the full length of the secant. so you have 4 * (9) = the tangent length (PQ) squared. so if 36 = PQ squared, the. PQ = 6.
