Consider circle o. if ae = 7, ec = 2, and be = 4, what is ed?

The correct answer is 3.5

Two chords AC and BD are intersecting inside the circle. The Intersecting Chord Theorem states that when two chords intersect inside a circle, the products of their segments are equal.

Thus, for the given circle:
(AE) × (EC) = (BE) × (ED)

The lengths of the segments are
AE = 7
EC = 2
BE = 4
ED = ?

To solve for ED, we simply substitute the known values into the equation

29. because you will divide each number of months by 12 to find the number of years. which would mean, 5, 12.5, 16, 45, 50, 72.5. which is crazy. anyhow, i think you find the median in the middle. and yea hope your test goes good

The answer is the first one
