Answer:

y = 12

Explanation:

if a tangent and a secant are drawn from an external point to a circle, then the square of the measure of the tangent is equal to the product of the measures of the secant's external part and the entire secant , that is

y² = 8(8 + 6 + 4) = 8 × 18 = 144 ( take square root of both sides )

y =
√(144) = 12
