Theorem:
There are three unique cases for this theorem. Each case expresses the relationship between the length of line segments that pass through a common point and touch a circle in at least one point.
Case 1 (Inside the Circle):
If two chords and intersect at a point within a circle, then
Case 2 (Outside the Circle):
Case 3 (On the Border/Useless Case):
