Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
when two chords intersects each other, then the product of their segments is equal.
JNxNK = LN x NM
3 *x = 2 * 6
x = (3*6)/2 = 18/2 = 9
because 1+1+1+1=4 and thats 4 1's 1+1=2 2+2=4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
it's another one of those similar triangles
it's easier to see this one.
t /c = u / b
where
t = 7x + 3
c = 27
u = 35
b = 21
plug in the knowns
7x + 3 / 27 = 35 / 21
7x + 3 = 27 ( 35 / 21 )
7x + 3 = 9 ( 35 / 7 ) ( divided by 3 )
7x + 3 = 9 ( 5) ( 7 into 35 =5 )
7x + 3 = 45
7x = 45 - 3
7x = 42
x = 6
I checked it, the ratio is 1_2/3 :) for both, but you can check it too
