Question

Find the value of x. A. 22.5 B.40 C.45 D.95

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent- secant angle x is half the difference of the measures of the intercepted arcs, that is

$\frac{1}{2}$ (4x + 5 - 50 ) = x ( multiply both sides by 2 )

4x - 45 = 2x ( subtract 2x from both sides )

2x - 45 = 0 ( add 45 to both sides )

2x = 45 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 22.5
