Example: Show a proof of the given theorem.

Given: AB∧DE are chords of ⊙ C Note:
intersecting at M. Draw AE∧BD
Prove: AM ⋅ BM=DM ⋅ EM
Proof:
Statement Reason
1
m BAE= ¿ and
2 The measure of an inscribed angle is one-half the
1 measure of its intercepted arc.
m BDE= ¿
2
Inscribed angles intercepting the same arc are
BAE ≅ BDE
congruent.
△ AME △ DMB AA Similarity Theorem
EM BM
= Lengths of sides of similar triangles are proportional
AM DM
AM ⋅ BM=DM ⋅ EM Multiplication Property

ACTIVITY: Show a proof of the given theorem.

1. If a tangent segment and a secant segment are drawn to a circle from an exterior point, then the
square of the length of the tangent secant is equal to the product of the length of the second segment
and its external secant segment.

Given: KL∧KM are tangent

and secant segments,
respectively, of ⊙ O drawn
from exterior point K.

KM intersects ⊙ O at N.
Prove: (KL)2 = KM ⋅ KN
