Given:

Here AE=4 and AM=9 is given and angle A is right angle means 90

Required:

We have to find the value of r means radius

Step-by-step explanation:

If the radius is r than AG=r-4

now use the Pythagoras theorem for A is right angle


r^2=9^2+(r-4)^2
r^2=81+r^2-8r+16
8r=97
r=12.125

Final answer:

The length of radius is 12.1 as option a
