Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

EG = EF + FG = 9 + x - 3 = 6 + x

AG = AH + HG = 6 +x - 2 =  4 + x

Intersecting secant theorem,

FG * EG = HG * AG

(x - 3)*(6 +x) = (x -2)(x + 4)

Use Foil method

6x + x²  - 18 - 3x = x² + 4x - 2x - 8

x² + 3x  - 18 = x² + 2x - 8

x² - x² + 3x - 2x = -8 + 18

               x = 10
