Answer:
7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
because OY is a radius like OX they will have equal length of 4 so OY = 4
Because of the circle theorem that says that tangents meet the the radius of a circle at 90 degrees, angle OYW is 90 degrees so the triangle OYW is a right angle triangle and we can use pythagoras theorem to get WY as:
[tex]8.5^{2} - 4^{2} = WY^{2} \\\sqrt{WY^{2}}=WY=7.5[/tex]
