Question

Concept 9.5: Find x Assume that segments that appear to be tangent are tangent.

Answer 1

X will be 2

Explanation:

ST=SU

7x-3=5x+1

2x=3+1

2x=4

x=4/2

x=2

hope it helps....

have a great day!!!

Answer 2

x = 2

Explanation:

Here's your solution

=> we know that tangents from a point to a common circle are equal

=> so, ST = SU

=> 7x - 3 = 5x + 1

=> 7x - 5x = 1 + 3

=> 2x = 4

=> x = 4/2

=> x = 2

hope it helps
