I think it's isosoceles, er, or however you spell it, if that helps. I'll work on it more after I get Jones soda
Edit: No. God, I forgot everything from Geometry.

It's a right triangle (because the line is tangent to the circle) and, I have a feeling you're gonna have to use sine, cosine or tangent

The answer is 6. Or 452.

^ ermm ok... umm swim its a tangent sorry i fogot to add that

tdoc210 06-10-2006 03:22 PM

i think bc might be 11

swim 06-10-2006 03:25 PM

Why?
If you explain I might remember stuff.
Edit: I think BC= 21

4/(7+x)= 3/x

The radi are 3 and 4 so that's where I got 7 from. X is BC.

4x=3x+21
x=21

tdoc210 06-10-2006 03:33 PM

well obvioulsey ab= 7 +fa which is 4 is 11, and that looks as though its = to Bc

You can't judge some thing just because it looks as though its equal.

Look at the proportion I did and ask questions I you have any. You have to use trig to find the angles. And I forgot that part of geometry.
