Question

Solve for x in the picture please

Answer 1

The value of x is 4

Explanation:

we know that

The Intersecting Secants Theorem states that When two secant lines intersect each other outside a circle, the products of their segments are equal

so

`(x-1+5)(5)=(x+2+4)(4)\\ (x+4)5=(x+6)4\\5x+20=4x+24\\5x-4x=24-20\\x=4`
