Prove that the ratio of perimeters of similar polygons is equal to the similarity coefficient.

Let \(CB\) and \(CD\) be tangents to the circle with the centre \(A\), let \(E\) be the point of intersection of the line \(AC\) with the circle. Draw \(FG\) as the segment of a tangent drawn through the point \(E\) between the lines \(CB\) and \(CD\). Find \(FG\) if the radius of the circle is \(15\) and \(AC = 39\).
