Answer:

11. C

12. A

Step-by-step explanation:

11. (10 + x + 1)(x + 1) = (x + 5)² (secant-tangent rule)

(11 + x)(x + 1) = (x + 5)(x + 5)

11(x + 1) +x(x + 1) = x(x + 5) +5(x + 5)

11x + 11 + x² + x = x² + 5x + 5x + 25

Add like terms

x² + 12x + 11 = x² + 10x + 25

Collect like terms

x² - x² + 12x - 10x = -11 + 25

2x = 14

2x/2 = 14/2

x = 7

12. (x + 8)(8) = (15 + 9)(9) (secant-secant theorem)

8x + 64 = 216

Subtract 64 from each side

8x = 216 - 64

8x = 152

8x/8 = 152/8

x = 19
