<u>Question 1</u>
If we let
, then
.
Also, as
bisects
, this means
.
Thus, by the intersecting chords theorem,

However, as distance must be positive, we only consider the positive case, meaning FE=9
<u>Question 2</u>
If we let CE=x, then because AB bisects CD, CE=ED=x.
We also know that since FB=17, the radius of the circle is 17. So, this means that the diameter is 34, and as AE=2, thus means EB=32.
By the intersecting chords theorem,

However, as distance must be positive, we only consider the positive case, meaning CE=8
Answer:
B) 24
Step-by-step explanation:
A right triangle is 90°
90-42=48
48/2=24
Answer:
Lesser x = -9
Greater x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Y= -35
Y = -1
I put the work in the picture below!
(Hint: just substitute the x for its number and do simple adding and subtracting)
