Radius-Tangent Theorem.
B 𝑡
A
Theorem: If two tangent segments are drawn from the same external point,
then the segments are equal.
2
Secant-Secant Power Theorem
Theorem: If two secants intersect in the exterior of a circle, then the product
of the lengths of one secant segment and its external part is equal to the
product of the lengths of the other secant segment and its external part.
