Answer:

D. 16

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] GH^2 = GF \times GE[/tex]

[tex] 12^2 = 9 \times (9+x - 2)[/tex]

[tex] 144= 9 \times (7+x)[/tex]

[tex] \frac{144}{9}= (7+x)[/tex]

[tex] 16= 7+x [/tex]

[tex] 16-7=x [/tex]

[tex] 9=x [/tex]

GE = 9 + x - 2 = 9 + 9 - 2 = 18 - 2

GE = 16

Answer:

D.16

Step-by-step explanation:

GE × GF = GH^2

9 × (9 + x - 2 ) = 12^2

63 + 9x = 144

9x = 81

x = 9

so, GE = 9 + x - 2

= 7 + 9

= 16
