The value of x is x=16.1
Chord
The perpendicular from the center of a circle bisects the chord
Radius
A line from the center of the circle to the circumference of the circle is the radius of the circle
Lets connect the center of the circle to the other end of the chord that is at the circumference of circle
The diagram attached below
The line OA from the center bisects the chord
AB= half of 28 = 14
the triangle AOB forms a right angle triangle
apply Pythagorean theorem to find out the value of x
[tex]x^2=8^2+14^2\\x^2= 64+196\\x^2=260\\\sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{260} \\ x=16.1[/tex]
The value of x is 16.1
