2016年8月23日 · The tangent secant theorem states that if a tangent segment and a secant segment are drawn to a circle from the same external point, then the product of the lengths of the internal and external parts of the secant segment equals the square of the length of the tangent segment. In the given picture, this gives us. #PA^2=PC*CF# #=> x^2 = 7*42 = 294#

Why is "secant" in the third quadrant negative? | Socratic
2018年4月27日 · By definintion If we think of a right triangle with vertical leg y and horizontal leg x and hypotenuse r with an angle theta where x and r intersect, we know that: x=rcos(theta) and y=rsin(theta). sec(x) = 1/cos(x) by definition, that is sec(x) = r/x Since r is a radius, it must be positive, so sec(x) is negative anywhere x is negative. This is in Quadrants II and III.
