Answer:

x = 9, WX = 34

Step-by-step explanation:

Two tangent segments to a circle from the same external point are congruent, that is

WX = YX, substitute values

7x - 29 = 2x + 16 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

5x - 29 = 16 ( add 29 to both sides )

5x = 45 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 9

Thus

WX = 7x - 29 = 7(9) - 29 = 63 - 29 = 34

Answer:

х = 9

WX = 34

Step-by-step explanation:

1) XY = WX как касетельные проведенные из одной точки.

то есть 2х+16=7х-29

2х - 7х = -29 - 16

-5х = -45

х = (-45):(-5)

х = 9

2) WX = 7х-29 = 7*9-29 = 63-29 = 34
