The value of x in the segment is 3

How to determine the value of x?

Using the secant and segment theorem, we have:

x * (x + 21) = (x + 1) * (x + 1 + 14)

Evaluate the sum

x * (x + 21) = (x + 1) * (x + 15)

Expand

x^2 + 21x = x^2 + 15x + x + 15

Subtract x^2 from both sides

21x = 15x + x + 15

Evaluate the like terms

5x = 15

Divide both sides by 5

x = 3

Hence, the value of x is 3
