I need help plz
Let AB be a diameter of a circle, and let C be a point on the circle such that AC=8 and BC=4 The angle bisector of ACB intersects the circle at point M Find CM.
Triangle ABC is a right triangle because it has it's hypotenuse on a diameter of a circle. (point C is backwards on my graph, but that doesnt affect the result because its a reflection of the original image)
Finding AB with pythagorean theorem, we get AB=√42+82=4√5.
We also Get ACM=MCB = 45 degrees
Because interior angles of a circle are congruent, we get AMB = BAM = 45. Now we see that ABM is a right isoceles triangle. Also, CAMB is a cyclic quadrilateral. We can calculate AM and BM too. AM=BM=4√5√2=2√10
Because ACBM is a cyclic, Ptolemy's theorem can be applied.
Set the length of CM as X
then 4∗2√10+8∗2√10=x∗4√5 and solving the equation we get x = x=6√2
