Answer:

CD=7.5\ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the value of AC

we know that

Applying the <u>Intersecting Secant-Tangent Theorem</u>

AB^{2}=AD*AC

we have

AB=5\ cm

AD=10\ cm

substitute the values and solve for AC

5^{2}=10*AC

AC=25/10=2.5\ cm

step 2

Find the value of CD

CD=AD-AC

substitute the values

CD=10-2.5=7.5\ cm

Later, our parents hide eggs and a couple of toys in the park and me and my siblings begin finding them.
