x-17= 23
move -17 to the other side
sign changes from -17 to +17
x-17+17= 23+17
x= 23+17
Answer:
x= 40
I believe the correct answer would be a if it’s not remove my answer
In both cases,

(as a consequence of the interesecting secant-tangent theorem)
So we have
10.





(omit the negative solution because that would make at least one of AB or AD have negative length)
11.




(again, omit the solutions that would give a negative length for either AB or AD)
