ABC is an isosceles triangle with AB = AC. A circle through B touching AC at the middle point intersects AB at P. Then, AP : BP is

  • 3 : 5

  • 1 : 4

  • 4 : 1

  • 2 : 3


B.

1 : 4



According to tangent-secant theorem:
"When a tangent and a secant are drawn from one single external point to a circle, square of the length of the tangent segment must be equal to the product of lengths of whole secant segment and the exterior portion of secant segment."
Now,
AD2 = AP. AB
Given AB = AC and D is mid-point of AC.
rightwards double arrow space space AD space equals space AC over 2 space equals space AB over 2
rightwards double arrow space space open parentheses AB over 2 close parentheses squared space equals space AP. space AB
rightwards double arrow space space fraction numerator left parenthesis AB right parenthesis squared over denominator 4 end fraction space equals space AP. space AB
rightwards double arrow space space space AB space equals space 4 AP
Hence comma space AP space colon thin space AB space equals space 1 space colon space 4
