<u>Answer</u>
48
<u>Explanation</u>
The product of the secant and the extension of the chord is normally equivalent to square of the tangent.
From the diagram given,
The length of the secant = 2+6
= 8
Length of the extension of the chord = 6
length of the tangent = x
∴ x² = 8 × 6
= 48
360 - 20 + 2x = 360
340 + 2x = 360
2x = 20
x = 10
This is possible providing the garden is in the shape that has equal sides, such as a square or an equilateral triangle.
Area of a square is found by multiplying one side to the other, which would be the same as multiplying two same numbers.
