Answer:

x = 30

Explanation:

You want external segment x of a secant with a total length of 45 from a point where another secant has external length 27 and total length 50.

Secant relations

The product of the external length and the total length of each secant is the same:

45x = 50(27)

x = 50(27)/45

x = 30
