The answer would be B. -4
Answer:
d. 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of lengths to the near and far intersection points is the same for both secants:
PB×PA = PD×PC
We can use this relation to solve for x, then use the value of x to find PD.
7×12 = (3x)(7x)
4 = x² . . . . . . . . . divide by 21
2 = x . . . . . . . . . . take the square root
__
PD = 3x = 3·2
PD = 6
Check picture below, solve for "x" and "y"
unless you've already covered the 30-60-90 triangle, then check your book on them, to see the ratios, using the 30-60-90 ratios is simpler
Answer:
The angles are vertical
Step-by-step explanation:
x+42+2x+1=180
put the like terms together i.e 2x+x+42+1=180
you get: 3x+43=180
Take 43 to th other side of 180 i.e 3x=180-43 i.e (180-43=137)
You get 3x=137
Divide both sides by 3
you get x=45.666666666667(Round off to get 45.67)
Substitute the value of x to the angles
x+42(45.67+42=87.67)
2x+1(2(45.67)+1=92.34
Add 87.67+92.34=180
THis shows that the angles are vertical
