directrix · Answer

Are you given information about arcs AD and AE. For example, is arc AD given to be congruent to arc AE?

anonymous · Answer

just as i said segment AD is congruent to segment AE

directrix · Answer

Just as I said, I need to know about the arcs (not SEGments). The reason I need to know is because there is a theorem that relates arcs and chords in the same circle if certain conditions are met.

directrix · Answer

@suzy4321 --> It may be "In the same circle or in congruent circles, congruent arcs have congruent chords." If the arcs of the chords are known to be congruent, then their chords are congruent and AD = AE = 27.
