Question

Solve for X ???

A. 2 / 15
B. 20
C. 30
D. / 35

Answer 1

Answer:

2 sqrt(15)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the secant tangent formula

(whole secant) x (external part) = (tangent)^2

(5+7) * 5 = x^2

12*5 = x^2

60 = x^2

Taking the square root

sqrt(60) = sqrt(x^2)

sqrt(4*15) = x

2 sqrt(15) =x
