Proving Basic Theorems about Chords and Segments via High-School-Level Geometric Algebra

Authors: James Smith

We prove the Intersecting-Chords Theorem as a corollary to a relation-ship, derived via Geometric Algebra, about the product of the lengths of two segments of a single chord. We derive a similar theorem about the product of the lengths of a secant a chord.
