To solve the problem, we need to prove that the length of the line segment \( CD \) is equal to \( 2 \times OO' \), where \( O \) and \( O' \) are the centers of the two intersecting circles. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Draw the Circles and Line**: - Draw two circles with centers \( O \) and \( O' \) that intersect at point \( P \). - Draw a line \( l \) through point \( P \) that is parallel to the line segment \( OO' \). This line intersects the first circle at point \( C \) and the second circle at point \( D \). ...
