If the length of the segment AB is 9 cm, and the segment CD is 2 cm shorter (that is, the length of the second is less than the length of the first segment), therefore, we find the difference: segment CD = segment AB – 2 cm, hence the length of the segment CD = 9 – 2 = 7 (cm).

Answer: the length of the second segment CD = 7 cm.
