Q33 (a) In the figure (i) given below, PAB is secant and PT is tangent to a circle. If PA : AB = 1:3 and PT = 6 cm, find the length of PB.

(b) In the figure (ii) given below, ABC is an isosceles triangle in which AB = AC and Q is mid-point of AC. If APB is a secant, and AC is tangent to the circle at Q, prove that AB = 4 AP.
