Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Tangent from the point outside the circle are equal

WX  = XY

7x - 29 = 2x + 16 {Add 29 to both sides}

7x  = 2x + 16 +29

7x = 2x + 45 {Subtract 2x from both sides}

7x - 2x = 45

5x = 45     {Divide both sides by 5}

x = 45/5

x = 9

WX = 7x - 29

       = 7*9 - 29

        = 63 - 29

WX = 34

Answer:

a = 1.5

VW = 9 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the tangent lines connect both circles, we know that the line VU and VX are congruent (equal). Thus, we can set them equal to each other and solve for a:

a + 4 = a² + 0.25                            Set equal

a² - a = 3.75                                    Isolate a values

a² - a + 0.25 = 3.75 + 0.25            Complete the square

(a + 0.5)² = 4                                  Factor

a + 0.5 = 2                                     Simplify

a = 1.5

Now we need to calculate VW, but thats easy because its equal to TV, and since we know a, we can just plug it in:

((1.5) + 7.5) ft

9 ft
