Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
If two chords intersect externally, then the product of the length of the chord and the length of the part outside the circle is a constant.
Thus from the figure,
we can deduce that:
8×3=6×x
collecting the like terms together we get:
24=6x
x=4
Answer:
x =4
Step-by-step explanation:
Refer the attached figure:
We will use Intersecting secants theorem
Theorem : When two secant lines intersect each other outside a circle, the products of their segments are equal. i.e.
(refer the attached figure)
So, using this theorem



Hence the value of x is 4.

[1] y = -x + 5
3x + 3•(-x +5) = 10
0 = -5 => NO solution
Divide 5.6 by 8 which is 0.7. Since the image of the ant is 8 times bigger we need to divide by 8 to make it actual size.
The ant's actual length is 0.7 cm.
