Answer:
CE and GD
Step-by-step explanation:
A secant of a circle is a line which passes through only 2 points of the circle. So it bisects the circle at exactly 2 points. BF is not a secant because even though the points are labelled there is no line passing through. The reason why GD is a secant is because there are the points G and F and a straight line runs through them so that's why it's a secant

Answer:
A. √13
Step-by-step explanation:
You can make an educated guess and come to the right conclusion.
The triangle is nearly an equilateral triangle. A triangle with two sides 3 and an angle of 60° would have a third side of 3. A triangle with two sides of 4 and an angle of 60° would have a third side of 4.
So, the third side must be between 3 and 4. Here is an evaluation of the answer choices:
__
A -- between 3 and 4, the correct choice
B -- 3, too short
C -- 1.73, too short
D -- more than 4, too long
__
The question can be answered using your triangle solver app on your calculator, or using the Law of Cosines.
c = √(a^2 +b^2 -2ab·cos(C))
c = √(3^2 +4^2 -2·3·4·(1/2)) = √(9 +16 -12)
c = √13 . . . . . length of the side opposite the 60° angle
Subtract 10 and collect terms to get the variable term by itself on the left.
... 4c = 24
Divide by the coefficient of the variable, 4.
... c = 6
The appropriate choice is the second one:
... 6
_____
You don't actually have to sove the equation to find the right answer. You just need to see which answer works.
-6: 5(-6) -(-6) +10 = -14 ≠ 34
6: 5(6) -(6) +10 = 34 . . . . . . . this answer works (you can stop here)
11: 5(11) -(11) +10 = 54 ≠ 34
-11: 5(-11) -(-11) +10 = -34 ≠ 34
