The width of the rug is 9 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of rug = 42 feet

Lengths are same in square and rectangle shapes; therefore;

Length of rug = 12 feet

Width of rug = w

Perimeter = Length + Length + Width + Width

Perimeter = 12+12+w+w

42=24+2w\\42-24=2w\\18=2w\\2w=18

Dividing both sides by 2

\frac{2w}{2}=\frac{18}{2}\\w=9

The width of the rug is 9 feet.

Examine the diagram, where BD is tangent to circle M at point D, and BA is secant to the same circle at points E and A.
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

19 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

The square of the tangent segment = The product of (whole secant segment) (the outside part of the secant segment)

BD²= (BA)(BE)        

8² = (4 + x - 7) (4)             BA = BE + EB

8² = (x - 3)(4)

64 = 4x - 12

64 + 12 = 4x

76 = 4x

19 = x
