Answer to Problem 31HP
The relationship shared by segments formed by intersecting chords is product of the parts on one intersecting chord equals the product of the parts of the other chord
Explanation of Solution
When two secants or chords intersects inside a circle, then measures of the segments of each chord multiplied with each other is equal to the product from the other chord.
Or the product of the segments on one side of intersecting chord equals the product of the parts of another side chord.
Use the following figure for more understanding:
Here, chord
