Intersecting secant-tangent theorem states that if a tangent segment and a secant segment are drawn to a circle from an exterior point, then the square of the measure of the tangent segment is equal to the product of the measures of the secant segment and its external secant segment.so to break it down: 1. pq acts as the tangent and ps as the secant with an intersection at p.sr = 21rp = 3x + 3pq = 4x + 4following to equation: tangent squared = the two segments multiplied by each otherso (4x + 4) ^ 2 = (3x + 3) • (21) simplifies to 16x^2 - 31x - 47 = 0 or (16x - 47)(x + 1) x = -1 or x = 47/162. pq acts as the tangent and ps as the secant with an intersection at p (again! )sr = 16rp = xpq = 15(15) ^ 2 = 16 • x225 = 16xx = 225/163. the interesting chords are proportional to each other so a ratio is possible to set up: ap dp 10 3 + x = = —— = pc pb 8 xcross multiple to get 10x = (3 + x)(8)x = 12

Use the diagonals to determine whether a parallelogram with vertices u(2,−2), v(9,−2), w(9,−6), and x(2,−6) is a rectangle, rhombus, or square. give all the names that apply.
Bradley and kelly are out flying kites at a park one afternoon. a model of bradley and kelly's kites are shown below on the coordinate plane as kites brad and kely, respectively: kites adbr and kely are shown on a coordinate plane. the vertices of adbr are a is at 9, 1; d is at 1, 5; b is at 9, 9; and r i which statement is correct about the two kites? (1 point) they are similar because segment br to segment db is 1: 2 and segment ke to segment yk 1: 2. they are not similar because segment br to segment db is 1: 5 and segment ke to segment yk is 1: 2. correct! they are not similar because segment br to segment db is 1: 2 and segment ke to segment yk is 1: 5. they are similar because segment br to segment db is 1: 5 and segment ke to segment yk is 1: 5.
