Find the measures of the following segments
🐢

[naive escarp]

do you know the power of a point theorem

[uncut kraken]

nope

i have no idea what this thing is at all

[naive escarp]

ok we'll start with the first question

[uncut kraken]

they said solve it with your own formula 😭 what am I einstein?

[uncut kraken]

oh yes please thank you

[naive escarp]

so there's three cases to the power of a point theorem
the picture i attached shows one of them

[uncut kraken]

okayy

im sorry where's the point

[naive escarp]

the theorem states that PA * PB = PC * PD

try to solve the first question with this info

[uncut kraken]

how

i'm so sorry

[naive escarp]

1. from this theorem we know 9 * 14 = 7 * x

[uncut kraken]

yeah

[naive escarp]

now solve for x

[uncut kraken]

i will try and show you

Wait please

it's wrong isn't it

@naive escarp sir? ◉⁠‿⁠◉

[naive escarp]

you wrote it wrong it's 9 * 14 not 7 * 14

[uncut kraken]

oh sorry

like this?

@naive escarp sir 🦖

[uncut kraken]

Dang

how 😭

[naive escarp]

try just doing 126/7 = x

you don't need to make the denominator a decimal

[uncut kraken]

wait what

[uncut kraken]

what do I do with this sir

[naive escarp]

9 * 14 = 7 * x
126 = 7x
126/7 = x
x = 18

[uncut kraken]

Ohhhhh

dang u smart

Oop

so like is that the formula?

[naive escarp]

if you're talking about this then yes

[uncut kraken]

Huh

[uncut kraken]

wait was this the answer for the first problem?

[naive escarp]

yes

[uncut kraken]

oh thank you sir

[naive escarp]

alright all you need to know is
(blue line length) * (yellow line length) is equal to (red line length) * (green line length)

[uncut kraken]

ok

now what

[naive escarp]

try to do question 4 by yourself first, tell me if you have any problems with it

[uncut kraken]

Yes sir

please wait for me tyty

hello

i can't do it

for me that was very different from the first problem 😔

[naive escarp]

well from the theorem i gave you the equation for x would be
3 * 8 = 4 * (x-4)

[uncut kraken]

oh okioki

just like this sir?

it's wrong isn't it 💀

[uncut kraken]

Uh oh

so like how

sir what do i do with it 😭

[naive escarp]

4 * (x-4)
= 4x - 16 (distrubution law)

[uncut kraken]

damn

i feel so stupid

but now what

[naive escarp]

simplify
24 = 4x - 16
40 = 4x

[uncut kraken]

sir how did you do that

[naive escarp]

just rearranging the equation

[uncut kraken]

ok ok

then what we do

[naive escarp]

40/4 = x
x = 10

[uncut kraken]

dangggg

i bet you study hard sir

[naive escarp]

i need to go soon im kinda busy rn

[uncut kraken]

i'm so sorry

but thank you tho

thank you very much

i have two points now 😁
