Answer:

Explanation:

Remark

The law of chord intersection is that each chord from one point on the circumference to the intersect point when multiplied by the left over amount of the chord = the same thing done to the other chord. It's easier to understand the formula used to solve this problem than it is to work through the definition.

Equation

x*4 = 14 * 2

Explanation

Take x from the chord's end on the circumference to the intersect point and four's length from the intersect point to the circumference. Multiply them

Do the same thing with the other chord.

Solution

4x = 28 Divide by 4

x = 28/4

x = 7
