Question

Solve for x. Assume that segments that appear to be tangent are tangent. Round your final answer to the nearest tenth, if necessary.

Answer 1

x= 16.6

Explanation:

The circle is unnecessary. You can just use Pythag Theorem

so

9^2+14^2= c^2

81 + 196 = 277

square root 277

16.64

round to the nearest tenth...

16.6
