Step-by-step explanation:
"Theorem 9-13: The measure of an angle formed by two secants, two tangents, or a secant and a tangent drawn from a point outside the circle is equal to half the difference of the measures of the intercepted arcs."
Basically no matter what other circle, secant or tangent you get, you just use the formula
If you need the outer angle, just put the other angles in and solve
If you need the far or near point angle, re-arrange the formula to get that value.
Answer:
x = - , x =
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value function always gives a positive value, however, the expression inside can be positive or negative, that is
- 3x + 16 = 18 or -(- 3x + 16) = 18
Solving
- 3x + 16 = 18 ( subtract 16 from both sides )
- 3x = 2 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
x = -
or
-(- 3x + 16) = 18
3x - 16 = 18 ( add 16 to both sides )
3x = 34 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x =
As a check
Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions.
| - 3(- ) + 16 | = | 2 + 16 | = | 18 | = 18 ← True
| - 3( ) + 16 | = | - 34 + 16 | = | - 18 | = 18 ← True
Thus x = - and x =
are the solutions
