What’s the correct answer for this?
。☆✼★ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ☾
Tangents that meet at a point are equal in length so DB = CB
Let's form an equation:
10x + 16 = 5x + 20
- 16 from both sides
10x = 5x + 4
- 5x from both sides
5x = 4
/5 on both sides
x = 4/5
Sub this value into the expression for CB
5(4/5) + 20 = 24
Thus, the answer is option D. 24

Answer:
4TH OPTION
Step-by-step explanation:
IN A CIRCLE , TANGENT DRAWN FROM AN EXTERNAL POINT TO THE CIRCLE ARE EQUAL.
ie BD = BC
ie 10x +16 = 5x+20
10x - 5x = 20 -16
5x = 4
x = 4/5
therfore BC = 5x+20 = 5*4/5 +20
BC= 4+20
BC = 24
