Question 60
A plane intersects a sphere in a circle $C$. The points $A$ and $B$ lie on the sphere on opposite sides of the plane. The line joining $A$ to the center of the sphere is normal to the plane. Another plane $p$ intersects the segment $AB$ and meets $C$ at $P$ and $Q$. Show that $BP \cdot BQ$ is independent of the choice of $p$.
