Answer:

x = 4

Explanation:

By property, if two tangents are drawn from an external point , then they are equal

⇒ 2x + 3 = 11

⇒ 2x = 11 - 3

⇒ 2x = 8

⇒ x = 8/2

⇒ x = 4

Answer:

x = 4

Explanation:

To find the value of x, we can use the Two-Tangent Theorem.

The Two-Tangent Theorem states that if two tangent segments are drawn to a circle from the same external point, the lengths of the two tangent segments are equal.

Therefore:


\begin{aligned}AD &= AB\\\\2x+3&=11\\\\2x+3-3&=11-3\\\\2x&=8\\\\(2x)/(2)&=(8)/(2)\\\\x&=4\end{aligned}

Therefore, the value of x is 4.
