This Demonstration illustrates the power of a point theorem in geometry, which states that if two chords

and

in a circle intersect at a point

, then

|AP||PB|=|CP||PD|

. This is also known as the intersecting chords theorem.

This was a project for Advanced Topics in Mathematics II, 2016–2017, Torrey Pines High School, San Diego, CA.
