What would be the best first step to use to solve this equation? 7/12=5/6x

The first step would be to divide both sides by 5/6 to isolate x.

Your answer is: x = 7/10

Solve for  x  by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helped : )

place r′ so that qr′ is parallel to the tangent.

now we get that ∠r′py=∠pr′q, where y is on the tangent, on the opposite side of p from x.

also, because of the symmetry, ∠r′py=∠qpx.

finally, note that no matter where we place r, as long as it's on the correct arc, we have ∠prq=∠pr′q.

stringing all these equalities together, we end up with ∠prq=∠qpx.

this picture will show how its going to look like.
