Respuesta :

The value of CE = 18.3

According to the statement

Here we have given the value of tangents AE = 8 and BC = 3

we have to find the value of CE and

It is given that AE is the tangent to the circle.

Now we make a equation to find the CE then

(8)^2 = 3(x+3)

In this equation the value of AE is 8. and

In this x is the value of CE and BC have value 3.

And the total value of BE becomes the 3(x+3) and 3 is the parts by which  BE is formed.

Then solve the equation

64= 3x +9

3x = 64-9

x = 18.3

So, The value of CE = 18.3
