I came across these tough problems and have no idea how to solve them. Help would be appreciated.

 

1. In the diagram below, ¯PQ is tangent at P to the circle with center O, point S is inside the circle, and ¯QS intersects the circle at R. If QR=RS=3OS=2 , and PQ=6, then find the radius of the circle.

 

 

2. In right triangle ABC, the length of side ¯AC is 8, the length of side ¯BC is 6, and C=90. The circumcircle of triangle ABC is drawn. The angle bisector of ACB meets the circumcircle at point M. Find the length CM.

 

Thanks a lot!

1. By power of a point, the radius is sqrt(33).

 

2. by power of a point, CM = 5*sqrt(3).
