What is the measure of x?
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

(whole secant) x (external part) = (tangent)^2

(x+5) *x = 6^2

x^2 +5x = 36

Subtract 36 from each side

x^2 +5x - 36 = 0

Factor

( x-4) (x+9) = 0

Using the zero product property

x-4 = 0  x+9 =0

x = 4  x=-9

Cannot be negative since that is negative length

x=4

T he equation for a parabola with directrix y = –p and focus (0, p) is:
zhuklara [117]

The equation for a parabola with directrix y = –p and focus (0, p)

The distance between vertex and directrix is P

Also the distance between vertex and focus is also P

Focus (0,p) so focus lies on y axis

Directrix line is paralled to focus point

So Directex crosses the x axis .

Hence line of symmetry lies is the y-axis.

The graph is attached below.
