Check the picture below.
keeping in mind that the point of tangency for a radius line and a tangent is alway a right-angle, since the "red" chord is parallel to the "green" tangent line outside, then the chord is cutting the "green" radius there in two equal halves at a right-angle, as you see in the picture.
we know the chord is 10 units long, so 5 + 5, since is perpendicularity with the radius will also cut the chord in two equal halves.
anyhow, all that said, we end up with triangle you see on the right-hand-side, and then we can just use the pythagorean theorem.

Answer:
x = 48/7
Step-by-step explanation:
There's two good ways to do this problem.
Option 1:
Translate "x varies directly as y" into the equation y=kx
Then you have to find k. After you "reset" your y=kx equation, fill in k and then solve for x. See image.
Option 2:
Translate "varies directly" into a proportion, which is two fractions equal to each other:
x/y = x/y
Fill in the three numbers given and cross multiply and solve to find the fourth number. See image.
Answer:
As shown in picture, the area is divided into 4 parts: 3 triangles and 1 rectangles.
Total area:
A = smallest triangle + medium triangle + largest triangle + rectangle
= 2 x 2 x 1/2 + 2 x 6 x 1/2 + 4 x (2 + 2 + 6) x 1/2 + 2 x 2
= 2 + 6 + 20 + 4
= 32
Hope this helps!

Answer:
(-5, 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>plug x into the equation x - 5y = -15</u>
-5 - 5y = -15
add 5 to both sides: -5y = -10
divide by -5: y = 2
