Exegesis
The participle apokritheis {ἀποκριθεὶς | a-po-kri-theìs} “having answered” precedes the main finite verb eipen {εἶπεν | eî-pen} “he said,” forming an attendant circumstance construction in which the participle and main verb together present a single, vivid action: Jesus responds by speaking.
In context — Matthew 15:28
Then Jesus answered and said to her, “O woman, great is your faith ; let it be done for you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that hour.
