X= ?? geometry ??? And how ????

steposvetlana [31]

Using the equations for tangent and secant lines:

Let the unknown length of the line inside the circle = y

6^2 = 3 x (y+3)

Simplify:

36 = 3y+9

Subtract 9 from both sides:

27 =3y

Divide both sides by 3:

Y = 9

Now add to get x:

X = 9 + 3 = 12

X = 12

Find the distance between the points (0, 10) and (–9, 1).

dimulka [17.4K]

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \sqrt{(-9-0)^2+(1-10)^2}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \sqrt{(-9)^2+(-9)^2}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \sqrt{81+81}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \sqrt{162}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 12.42$
