Theorem	chordthmALT 46106*	The intersecting chords theorem. If points A, B, C, and D lie on a circle (with center Q, say), and the point P is on the interior of the segments AB and CD, then the two products of lengths PA · PB and PC · PD are equal. The Euclidean plane is identified with the complex plane, and the fact that P is on AB and on CD is expressed by the hypothesis that the angles APB and CPD are equal to π. The result is proven by using chordthmlem5 27194 twice to show that PA · PB and PC · PD both equal BQ 2 − PQ 2 . This is similar to the proof of the theorem given in Euclid's Elements, where it is Proposition III.35. Proven by David Moews on 28-Feb-2017 as chordthm 27195. https://us.metamath.org/other/completeusersproof/chordthmaltvd.html 27195 is a Virtual Deduction User's Proof transcription of chordthm 27195.

Theorem	modelaxrep 46166*	Conditions which guarantee that a class models the Axiom of Replacement ax-rep 5235. Similar to Lemma II.2.4(6) of [Kunen2] p. 111. The first two hypotheses are those in Kunen. The reason for the third hypothesis that our version of Replacement is different from Kunen's (which is zfrep6 5245). If we assumed Regularity, we could eliminate this extra hypothesis, since under Regularity, the empty set is a member of every non-empty transitive class. Note that, to obtain the relativization of an instance of Replacement to 𝑀, the formula ∀𝑦𝜑 would need to be replaced with ∀𝑦 ∈ 𝑀𝜒, where 𝜒 is 𝜑 with all quantifiers relativized to 𝑀. However, we can obtain this by using 𝑦 ∈ 𝑀 ∧ 𝜒 for 𝜑 in this theorem, so it does establish that all instances of Replacement hold in 𝑀. (Contributed by Eric Schmidt, 29-Sep-2025.)

21.46.8  The class of well-founded sets is a model for ZFC
Theorem	wfaxext 46178*	The class of well-founded sets models the Axiom of Extensionality ax-ext 2735. Part of Corollary II.2.5 of [Kunen2] p. 112. This is the first of a series of theorems showing that all the axioms of ZFC hold in the class of well-founded sets, which we here denote by 𝑊. More precisely, for each axiom of ZFC, we obtain a provable statement if we restrict all quantifiers to 𝑊 (including implicit universal quantifiers on free variables). None of these proofs use the Axiom of Regularity. In particular, the Axiom of Regularity itself is proved to hold in 𝑊 without using Regularity. Further, the Axiom of Choice is used only in the proof that Choice holds in 𝑊. This has the consequence that any theorem of ZF (possibly proved using Regularity) can be proved, without using Regularity, to hold in 𝑊. This gives us a relative consistency result: If ZF without Regularity is consistent, so is ZF itself. Similarly, if ZFC without Regularity is consistent, so is ZFC itself. These consistency results are metatheorems and are part of Theorem II.2.13 of [Kunen2] p. 114. (Contributed by Eric Schmidt, 11-Sep-2025.) (Revised by Eric Schmidt, 29-Sep-2025.)
