      Question

      In a circle, two chords AB and CD intersect inside the

      circle at P. If AP = 4 cm, PB = 6 cm, CP = 5 cm, and PD = x cm, what is the value of x?
      A 3.6 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 7 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 4.8 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 9 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      By the intersecting chords theorem, AP Γ— PB = CP Γ— PD. Substituting the values, 4 Γ— 6 = 5 Γ— x, so 24 = 5x, x = 24 / 5 = 4.8 cm. Correct answer: c) 4.8 cm
