find power of point A with respect to the circle M if AM is 10 cm and radius is 6

Answer 1

To find the power of point A with respect to circle M, we can use the formula:

Power of point A = AM^2 - r^2

where AM is the distance from point A to the center of circle M, and r is the radius of circle M.

In this case, AM is given as 10 cm and the radius (r) is given as 6 cm. Plugging these values into the formula, we get:

Power of point A = 10^2 - 6^2
= 100 - 36
= 64 cm^2

Therefore, the power of point A with respect to circle M is 64 cm^2.
