Answer:

NM = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

If one secant and one tangent are drawn to a circle from one exterior point, then the square of the length of the tangent is equal to the product of the external secant segment and the total length of the secant:

         NM² = LM•KM

     (x + 3)² = (x - 3)(x - 3 + 16) = (x - 3)(x + 13)

x² + 6x + 9 = x² + 10x - 39

          -4x = -48

               x = 12

NM = 12 + 3 = 15

Write an equation in standard form for a line that passes through (2,2) and (0,-3).
asambeis [7]
So,

The standard form is:
y = mx + b

First, we find "m," the slope.  Subtract the y-coordinates from each other.  Do likewise with the x-coordinates.

2 - -3 = 5
2 - 0 = 2

Slope = 5/2

y= \frac{5}{2} x+b

Now, we can substitute the second solution into this equation for x and y and solve for "b."

-3= \frac{5}{2} *0+b

-3= b

Now we have our complete equation.

y= \frac{5}{2} x-3
