Question

What’s the correct answer for this?

Answer 1

Answer:

26

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying the tangent-secant theorem, we get:

12^2 = 8 * (x + 10)

144 = 8x + 80

= 8x = 144 - 80

8x = 64

x = 8

Putting x = 8 in ED, which is x + x + 10, we get:

= 8 + 8 + 10

= 26

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

ED = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

Using tangent-secant theorem

(12)²=(8)(x+10)

144=8x+80

144-80=8x

8x = 64

x=8

Now

ED = 8+8+10

ED = 26
