Mathematics

The measure of EF from the given diagram is 6 units

<h3>Secant secant theorem</h3>

The theorem states that if two secants are drawn from an external point to a circle, then the product of the measures of one secant's external parts is the same as the product of the other external part.

Mathematically according to the given figure;

4(4+2x) = 5(5+x)

Expand

16 + 8x = 25 + 5x

Collect the like terms

8x - 5x = 25 - 16

3x = 9

Divide both sides by 3

3x/3=. 9/3

x = 3

Find EF

EF = 2x

EF = 2(3) = 6

Hence the measure of EF from the given diagram is 6 units

I think you're having trouble because the equation you wrote for 8a has a slight typo.

The question says that the length is 9 less than twice the width. Your equation states the length is 9 times the width minus 2. So the length actually equals 2w – 9, meaning that w(2w – 9) = 180

Hope this helps! If you're still having trouble, let me know :)
