Question

If BC= 4 and CE=15 write 2 lengths for segments AC and CD are:

HELPPPPPPPPPP

Answer 1

are the lines intersecting the center? do they touch the center?

Answer 2

No none touch the center

Answer 3

how is bc=4?

Answer 4

IDK its hard

Answer 5

BC*CE = AC*CD

Answer 6

Huuhhh...

Answer 7

Do both lines go through the center?

Answer 8

@Rancd

Answer 9

The product of the lengths of the segments of one chord equals the product of the lengths of the segments of the other chord.

Answer 10

BC*CE = AC*CD

4*15 = AC*CD

60 = AC*CD

AC*CD = 60

So if AC and CD are whole numbers, then just list out the different ways to factor 60

Answer 11

Factors of 60:?

Answer 12

5, 10

Answer 13

Since you know that BC = 4 and CE = 15, their product is 4*15 = 60
That means the product of AC and CD must also equal 60. Pick any two numbers for AC and CD whose product is 60.

Answer 14

Rancd, do both lines go through the center????????????????????

Answer 15

You mean 6, 10

Answer 16

Yeah and no thy do not intersect at the center

Answer 17

Hey I'm official confused

Answer 18

6*10 = 60, so AC could be 6 and CD could be 10 and this would work out

so

AC = 6
CD = 10

or you can flip them around to get the same thing

Answer 19

I get it noww

Answer 20

you can use 1*60, 2*30, 3*20, 5*12 or flip either of them around
