Ad and mn are chords that intersect at point b what is the length of line segment mn?

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The Intersecting Chord Theorem, states that When two chords intersect each other inside a circle, the products of their segments are equal.

so

In this problem

substitute

Find the length of line segment MN

substitute the value of x

MN = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

AD and MN are two chords intersecting inside the circle at point B.

As we know from intersecting chords theorem.

AB × BD = BN × BM

So 9(x-1)  = 15 (x-1)

9x + 9  = 15x - 15

15x - 9x = 15 + 9

6x = 24

x = 4

and MN = (x-1) + 15

             = (x + 14)

             = 4 + 14 ( By putting x = 4 )

             = (18)

Therefore, MN = 18 is the answer.

hi.. not right now
