The ratio of the lengths of the tangent segments from an external point to a circle is equal to the square of the ratio of the lengths of the line segments that connect the point to the endpoints of the tangent segments.
Let x be the length of AB, then the length of EC will be x as well.
Using the given information,
11/EC = EA/EC
11/x = 11/x
1 = 1
Therefore, the value of angle CAC cannot be determined from the given information. The answer is "Cannot be determined."
Given circle EE with diameter start overline, C, D, end overline
CD
and radius start overline, E, A, end overline
EA
. start overline, A, B, end overline
AB
is tangent to EE at AA. If E, C, equals, 11EC=11 and E, A, equals, 11EA=11, solve for A, CAC. Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary. If the answer cannot be determined, click "Cannot be determined."
