Find the value of YZ

YZ = 44

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the intersection of XW and YZ equal A. For this problem, we can use power of a point in the scenario where two secants intersect in the interior of a circle. We get the equation:

WA * AX = ZA * AY

We can substitute the values we are given to get:

(2x - 6)(21) = (x + 1)(30)

42x - 126 = 30x + 30

12x - 126 = 30

12x = 156

x = 13

Using segment addition postulate, we can say that:

YZ = YA + AZ

And we can plug in what we know from the diagram:

YZ = 30 + x + 1

We can also plug in the value of x, 13

YZ = 30 + 13 + 1 = 44

2 over 5

step-by-step explanation:

the 2: 3 ratio is the length of the ac segment to the cb segment total length. this implies that the ratio between segment ac length and segment ab length is 2: 5. point c is 2/5 from a to b, so the required fraction is 2/5.
