    129. I'm sure merong shortcut dito. Pero nagawa ko namang i-solve, mahaba nga lang.

    AD² + DC² = 25² .................... [1]

    BD² + 16² = DC² .................... [2]

    9² + BD² = AD² ...................... [3]

    At [1]:

    DC² = 25² - AD² ..................... [4]

    [4] →[2]:

    BD² + 16² = 25² - AD²

    BD² + AD² = 369 ................... [5]

    Solve using [5] and [3]:

    [Equation 3] ........................ BD² - AD² = -81

    [Equation 5] ........................ BD² + AD² = 369

    Add both equations to cancel AD².

    The result should be:

    2 BD² = 288

    Divide both sides by 2.

    BD² = 144

    BD = 12 ........................... [Ans.]

    130.

    d = √(7²+24²) = 25

    Radius = d/2 = 12.5 ................. [Ans.]
