Answer:

18.1

Explanation:

All radii of a circle are congruent (same length), which means if we draw in a radius from the center to the end of the 16.3, it would be the same length of x.

Now we can use sa very simple theorem.... the pythagorean therom!


7.9^(2) + 16.3^(2) = x^(2) \\62.41 + 265.69 = x^(2) \\328.1 = x^(2) \\18.1 = x(rounded)

I hope this helps you.
