Question: If two chords in a circle intersect each other, what is the relationship between the segments of the chords?

Options:

1. The segments are equal
2. The product of the segments is equal
3. The sum of the segments is equal
4. The segments are perpendicular

Correct Answer: The product of the segments is equal

Solution:

The intersecting chords theorem states that the product of the lengths of the segments of one chord is equal to the product of the lengths of the segments of the other chord.
