The length of chord ab in circle o is 24. vanessa said that any chord of circle o that inter- sects ab at its midpoint, m, is separated by m into two segments such that the product of the lengths of the segments is 144. do you agree with vanessa? justify your answer.

If two chords intersect each other inside a circle, the products of their segments are equal.

If M is midpoint of AB, then AM = MB = 24/2 = 12.

Product of the lengths of the segments AM and MB:
AM * MB = 12 * 12 = 144

So, any chord of circle O that intersects AB at its midpoint, M, wll be separated by M into two segments such that the product of the lengths of the segments is 144.

Gotta be d the music of previous eras
