<h3>
Answer: 38.1</h3>
====================================================
Explanation:
Segment AB is tangent to circle C. That tells us angle ABC is a 90 degree angle (the tangent is always perpendicular to the radius at the point of tangency). In other words, segments AB and BC are perpendicular. So triangle ABC is a right triangle.
The hypotenuse is AC = 22+22 = 44 units. One of the legs is BC = 22 units, due to the fact that radii of the same circle are the same length.
We then use the pythagorean theorem to find the missing leg length.
(AB)^2 + (BC)^2 = (AC)^2
(AB)^2 + (22)^2 = (44)^2
(AB)^2 + 484 = 1936
(AB)^2 = 1936 - 484
(AB)^2 = 1452
AB = sqrt(1452)
AB = 38.105118 which is approximate
AB = 38.1 after rounding to the nearest tenth
