Answer:

Option (2)

Step-by-step explanation:

By using theorem of intersecting secant and tangent at a point outside a circle.

PB × PA = (PQ)²

Since, PB = 2 units

PA = (PB + AB)

     = (2 + 6)

     = 8 units

PQ = x units

Therefore, by substituting these values,

2 × 8 = x²

[tex]x^{2} = 16[/tex]

Therefore, Option (2) will be the correct option.
