Answer» Answer: 16 cm Step-by-step explanation: from right triangle BOD BD = √(OB²-OD²) = √(13²- 8²) = √105 from right triangle POD PD = √(OP²-OD²) = √(13²-8²) = √105 PB = BD + PD = 2√105 PB²= 420 from right triangle APB AP = √(AB²- PB²) =√26²- 420 = √676-420 = √256 = 16

Answer»

Answer:

16 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

from right triangle BOD

BD = √(OB²-OD²) = √(13²- 8²) = √105

from right triangle POD

PD = √(OP²-OD²) = √(13²-8²) = √105

PB = BD + PD = 2√105 PB²= 420

from right triangle APB

AP = √(AB²- PB²) =√26²- 420 = √676-420 = √256 = 16
