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

cpctc makes it so that corresponding parts of the triangle you proved to be equal are equal, the other options aren't part of the part of the triangles you proved to be equal.
Someone answer this asap for the function f(x) and g(x) are both quadratic functions. f(x) = x² + 2x + 5 g(x) = x² + 2x - 1 which statement best describes the graph of g(x) compared to the graph of f(x)? a. the graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) shifted down 1 units. b. the graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) shifted down 6 units. c. the graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) shifted to the right 1 unit. d. the graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) shifted tothe right 6 units.
