9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Segment lengths of each chord have the same product.

  (x -2)(x +6) = 9×20

  x² +4x -12 = 180

  x² +4x +4 = 196 . . . . . add 16 (complete the square)

  (x +2)² = 14²

  x +2 = 14 . . . . . . . . . . . positive root is the only one useful

  x = 12
