Answer:

Measure of line segment ap = 12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Two line segments (tangents) from a common point (p).

Considering p as a common point.

Measure of length bp = 12 cm

We have to find the measure of length ap.

According to the theorem.

Two-Tangent Theorem:

When two segments are drawn tangent to a circle from the same point outside the circle, the segments are equal in length.

So,

We can say that both the line segments from point p are equal.

Measure of ap = 12 cm

A diagram is also attached with this.

Measure of segment ap = 12 cm

In the diagram abc=adb=90, ad=p and dc=q. Use similar triangles to show that x2=pz<br> plzz anyoneee
kramer

Answer:

By comparing the ratios of sides in similar triangles ΔABC and ΔADB,we can say that x^{2} =pz

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that ∠ABC=∠ADC, AD=p and DC=q.

Let us take compare Δ ABC and  Δ ADB in the attached file , ∠A is common in both triangles

                                                                     and given ∠ABC=∠ADB=90°

Hence using AA postulate, ΔABC ≈ ΔADB.

Now we will equate respective side ratios in both triangles.

\frac{AB}{AC}= \frac{AD}{AB}=\frac{BD}{BC}

Since we don't know BD , BC let us take first equality and plugin the variables given in respective sides.

\frac{x}{z}= \frac{p}{x}

Cross multiply

x^{2}=pz

Hence proved.
