What is the measure of x?
1 answer:
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
(whole secant) x (external part) = (tangent)^2
(x+5) *x = 6^2
x^2 +5x = 36
Subtract 36 from each side
x^2 +5x - 36 = 0
Factor
( x-4) (x+9) = 0
Using the zero product property
x-4 = 0 x+9 =0
x = 4 x=-9
Cannot be negative since that is negative length
x=4

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to use the triangle inequality theorem:
12cm, 4cm, xcm
x > 4cm - 12cm
x > -8cm
x < 12cm - 4cm
x < 8cm
-8cm < x < 8cm
300 kelvin is greater.
300 kelvin equals approximately 26.85°C
So x equals two if it is an exponent.9
