A secant is a line that intersects a circle in exactly two points. When a tangent and a secant, two secants, or two tangents intersect outside a circle than the measure of the angle is formed is one-half the positive difference of the measures of the intercepted arcs.

Answer:
B 9, -9
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 - 81 = 0
Add 81 to each side
x^2 = 81
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(81)
x = ±9
The answer will be for every x, y will be 1.25
Make a drawing with a right triangle.
The opposite side, y, is the height of the dam less 1.65 m
The base or adjacent side is 90 m
The angle between the two sides is 90 m.
Then tan (26) = y / 90
y = 90 tan(26) = 90 (0.4877) = 43.90 m
The height of the dam is 43.90m + 1.65m = 45.55 m
