Some people might be confused while applying the three theorems related to segments in circles. they might not be sure which segments to multiply. what hints would you recommend they use to figure out which segments to multiply for each of the three theorems?

1.Intersecting segments theorem

In this scenario, two secant segments intersect each other inside the circle.The relationship is that the product of the segment pieces of one segment is equal to the product of the segment piece of the other.

Hint⇒identify the corresponding segment pieces for multiplication

2.Two secant segments that intersect outside circle

In this scenario the product of the whole secant with its external part is equal to the product of the other whole secant segment with its external part.

Hint ⇒identify the segment pieces outside the circle and the whole segments that include the external parts

3.One secant and one Tangent

In this case, the relation is that the product of whole segment with its external part is equal to square of the tangent segment.

Hint⇒ Identify the tangent segment and the whole secant segment that has an external part.

Hope this Helps.
