Answer:

c     15

Step-by-step explanation:

Tangent AB is tangent to circle D at point A. The angle made by a tangent to a circle and a radius of the circle at the point of tangency is a right angle. That means that angle is a right angle, and triangle ABD is a right triangle.

We can use the Pythagoren theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

x^2 + 20^2 = (x + 10)^2

x^2 + 400 = (x + 10)(x + 10)

x^2 + 400 = x^2 + 10x + 10x + 100

400 = 20x + 100

20x = 300

x = 15
