Question 1155551: A secant and a tangent intersect in the external of a circle. The chord which is a part of the secant is 3 times as long as the tangent segment and the internal segment of the secant is 10cm. Find the length of their common internal tangent.

There is no common internal tangent in the figure....
A common internal tangent requires two curves, usually two non-intersecting circles. There is only one circle and some straight lines in this problem.
