Find the value of x in the circle below. Assume that lines that appear to be tangent are tangent.8O2O48OO12

If one of the lines is tangent (the one whose length equals 8) and the other line is secant (the one that goes from the that intersects the circle), then the square of the length of the tangent is equal to the product of the external secant segment and the total length of the secant, like this:

8²=4×(4+x)

From this equation we can solve for x like this:

64 = 4×4 + 4x

64 = 16 + 4x

64 - 16 = 4x

48 = 4x

12 = x

x = 12

Then, x equals 12

A quadratic equation of the form 0 = ax2 + bx + c has one real number solution. Which could be the equation?
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

The equation showing this situation is  D=b^2-4ac=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A quadratic equation of the form ax^2 + bx + c=0  has one real number solution.

To find : Which could be the equation?  

Solution :

A quadratic equation in form ax^2+bx+c=0 has a solution x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a} called a quadratic formula  in which the roots are one real,two real or no real is determine by discriminant factor.

Discriminant is defined as to determine the number of roots in a quadratic equitation has following rules :

1) If D=b^2-4ac>0 there are two real roots.

2) If D=b^2-4ac=0 there are one real roots.

3) If D=b^2-4ac there are no real roots.

According to question,

A quadratic equation of the form ax^2 + bx + c=0  has one real number solution.

So, The equation showing this situation is  D=b^2-4ac=0
