Question

Please help me find the answer !

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 12

y = 6√3

Step-by-step explanation:

✅Apply the intersecting secant theorem to find x. Thus:

6(6 + x) = 7(7 + 8³/7)

Convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction

6(6 + x) = 7(7 + 59/7)

36 + 6x = 49 + 59

36 + 6x = 108

6x = 108 - 36

6x = 72

Divide both sides by 6

x = 72/6

x = 12

✅Apply the tangent-secant theorem to find y. Thus:

y² = 6(6 + x)

Plug in the value of x

y² = 6(6 + 12)

y² = 6(18)

y² = 108

y = √108

y = 6√3
