2.6

Practice makes perfect
Consider the given diagram.
To find CK we will use the Segment Addition Postulate. We are given that BC= 5.4 units. We also know that ⊙ K has a radius of 8 units, so we know that BK= 8. We can use this information to find the length of CK.
BC + CK = BK
5.4 + CK = 8
CK =2.6
We have found that CK=2.6 units.
