Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 secants intersect a circle from a point outside the circle, then

The product of the external part and the entire part of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the entire part of the other secant, that is

x(x + 10 + x) = 6(6 + 10 + x)

x(2x + 10) = 6(16 + x) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

2x² + 10x = 96 + 6x ← subtract 96 + 6x from both sides

2x² + 4x - 96 = 0 ← in standard form

Divide through by 2

x² + 2x - 48 = 0 ← factor the left side

(x + 8)(x - 6) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = - 8

x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6

However x > 0 ⇒ x = 6 → C

Answer:

Each base angle is 81°

Step-by-step explanation:

A pennant is in the shape of an isosceles triangle and the vertex angle is 18°.

An iscosceles triangle has two equal sides and two equal angles.

So assuming the base angles measure b° each;

b° + b° + 18° = 180° (angles in a triangle add up to 180°)

2b° = 180° - 18° = 162°

b = 162° ÷ 2 = 81°

So each base angle is 81°

I will give brainiest if correct
Natalka [10]
Its C. Add 3 and 15 which gives you 18. Then move the variable (4x) to the left. Then combine like terms which are the x’s and you should get 3x. Then divide both sides by 3. (18/3 = 6)
