Question

Not sure if this is the answer?

Answer 1

x = 16

Explanation:

Based in the tangent-secant theorem, we have the following equation showing the relationship between the secant and the tangent:

(2 + x)*2 = 6²

4 + 2x = 36

Subtract 4 from both sides

2x = 36 - 4

2x = 32

Divide both sides

2x/2 = 32/2

x = 16
