The measure of QS from the given line is 10

<h3>Addition postulate</h3>

From the given diagram below, we will use the following addition postulate;

QR + RS + ST =QT

Given the following parameters

RT = 15

RS = 7 , and

QT = 18

Substitute

QR + RT =QT

QR + 15 = 18

QR = 18 - 15

QR =3

Determine QS

QS = QR + RS

QS = 3 + 7

QS = 10

Hence the measure of QS from the given line is 10

PLEASE HELP!! I know I need to factor but I’m confused…
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a tangent and a secant from an external point to a circle, then

The product of the external part and the whole of the secant is equal to the square of the tangent, that is

9(9 + x) = 15²

9(9 + x) = 225 ( divide both sides by 9 )

9 + x = 25 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

x = 16
