Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. When two chords intersect each other inside a circle, the products of their segments are equal. ... One chord is cut into two line segments A and B. The other into the segments C and D. This theorem states that A×B is always equal to C×D no matter where the chords are.

2. If two chords intersect inside a circle, then the measure of the angle formed is one half the sum of the measure of the arcs intercepted by the angle and its vertical angle . In the figure, m∠1=12(m⌢QR+m⌢PS) .

3. The intersecting chords theorem or just the chord theorem is a statement in elementary geometry that describes a relation of the four line segments created by two intersecting chords within a circle. It states that the products of the lengths of the line segments on each chord are equal.
