Option 1: 6 cm
Option 2: 3 cm
Option 3: 7 cm
Option 4: 5 cm
Correct Answer: 6 cm
Solution : Here, $\angle$DAC = $\angle$ACB = 90° (Tangnet is perpendicular to the radius at the point of contact) $\angle$AED = $\angle$BEC (Vertically opposite angles are equal) By AA similarity criteria, $\triangle$ AED $\sim\triangle$ CEB $\frac{AE}{EC} = \frac{AD}{BC}$ ⇒ $\frac{6}{9}=\frac{4}{x}$ $\therefore x=\frac{4\times9}{6} = 2\times 3 =
