Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

If two chords are intersecting each other at a point insides a circle,

"Product of the measures of the line segments on each chord are equal"

By this property,

MH × HY = TH × HN

By substituting the measures of each segment,

7 × 12 = 14 × (
x)


x=(84)/(14)


x=6

Therefore, Option (B) will be the correct option.
