Answer:

x = 5 and x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The segment through the center is a perpendicular bisector of the chord, thus

5x - 6 = 2x + 9 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

3x - 6 = 9 ( add 6 to both sides )

3x = 15 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 5

-------------------------------------------------------

Tangents to a circle from an external point are congruent, thus

4x - 1 = 3x + 10 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

x - 1 = 10 ( add 1 to both side
