Would you say that pythagoras’ theorem holds true for hexagons as well? why or why not

No, the Pythgorean Theorem only applies to right triangles. To get two right triangles, you divide a rectangle diagonally. Dividing a hexagon into two pieces produces trapezoids or pentagons depending where it is divided.

Answer:

$x=4\\\\y=6\\\\IK=47$

Step-by-step explanation:

Two Tangent Theorem: Tangents which meet at same point are equal in length.

Here tangents at J and H meet at I.

$Hence\ HI=IJ\\\\y^2-10=4y+2\\\\y^2-4y-12=0\\\\y^2-6y+2y-12=0\\\\y(y-6)+2(y-6)=0\\\\(y-6)(y+2)\\\\y\ can\ not\ be\ negative\ as\ in\ that\ case\ IJ\ will\ be\ negative.\\\\Hence\ y=6\\\\IJ=4y+2=4\times 6+2=26\\\\\\\\Tangents\ at\ J\ and\ L\ meet\ at\ K.\ Use\ two\ tangent\ theorem.\\\\JK=KL\\\\5x+1=6x-3\\\\6x-5x=1+3\\\\x=4\\\\JK=5x+1=5\times 4+1=21\\\\\\IK=IJ+JK=26+21\\\\IK=47$
