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
