If PA=6, PD=4, and BE=5, find PE
4
5
6

Option A: 4 is the length of PE

Explanation:

Given that PA=6, PD=4, and BE=5

We need to determine the length of PE

The length of PE can be determined using the intersecting secant tangent theorem.

Applying the secant tangent theorem, we get,

Substituting the values of the PA and BE, we get,

Simplifying, we get,

Subtracting both sides of the equation by 36, we get,

Switch sides, we get,

Solving this equation, we get,

Equating each term equal to zero, we get,

and

Simplifying, we get,

and

The value of PE cannot be negative.

Thus, the length of PE is 4.

Hence, Option A is the correct answer.

45

step-by-step explanation:

to find a percentage, add a decimal in front and multiply it by the other number.

.25 times 180= 45
