NO LINKS!! URGENT HELP PLEASE!!!

Find the value of x, please!!

Answer 1

x = 10

Explanation:

An angle formed by a chord and a tangent that intersect on a circle is half the measure of the intercepted arc.

8x - 5 = 1/2(14x + 10)

8x - 5 = 7x + 5

8x - 6x = 5 + 5

x = 10

Answer 2

x=10°

Explanation:

We have:

the angle of tangency is half of the measure of the arc formed on the same side.

So,

(8x-5)°=½*(14x+10)°

8x-5=7x+5

8x-7x=5+5

x=10°
