Answer:

3 Units

Step-by-step explanation:

Secant RM intersects secant RN at point R.

The secants intersects the circle at points P and Q respectively as seen in the diagram.

To determine the length of RQ, we use the Theorem of Intersecting Secants.

Applying this on the diagram, we have:

RP x RN=RQ X RM

4(4+5)=RQ(RQ+9)

Let the length of RQ=x

4*9=x^2+9x\\36=x^2+9x\\x^2+9x-36=0\\x^2+12x-3x-36=0\\x(x+12)-3(x+12)=0\\(x+12)(x-3)=0\\x+12=0$ x-3=0\\x=-12 or x=3\\Since x cannot be negative$\\x=|RQ|=3

Therefore, length of RQ=3 Units

What is the area of this figure?
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

          \large\boxed{\large\boxed{42 unit^2}}

Explanation:

The figure is not a regular hexagon. It is an irregular hexagon.

Please, find attached the picture with the original question and the figure.

You can split the figure into two triangles and one rectangle.

The rectangle has dimensions: 7units × 4units, thus its area is 28 units².

Both the upper triangle and lower triangle have base 7 units and height 2 units.

Hence the area of each triangle is:

       area=(1/2)base\times height

       

      area=(1/2)7units\times 2units = 7units^2      

Hence, the area of the hexagon is:

           28units^2+7units^2+7units^2=42units^2

Please solve-y(2+4y)
Elina [12.6K]
To solve this, you distribute the -y to both terms, 2 and 4y.
It will look something like this: (2*-y)+(4y*-y)
When you simplify, look for any like terms that can be combined, and if none, then leave it as it is. 
Your final answer will be: -2y-4y^2
