Answer:

B

Explanation:

Since the line segment JK is tangent to the circle C, it creates a 90° angle at the point of intersection.

This means that we can use the Pythagorean Theorem.


a^2+b^2=c^2

Plug in the values given.


24^2+b^2=28^2 \\ \\ 576+b^2=784 \\ \\ b^2=208 \\ \\ b=√(208) \\ \\ b=14.4
