Find the Radius

This was a fun question, I hope you guys love it.
Does anybody read these descriptions? I think it would be funny if everybody who read this paragraph commented their favorite color and then their favorite animal. Then so many people in the comments would be confused cause there is no prompt in the video. :-)

    If we were in a situation where significant digits came into effect, we'd be ignoring the decimels anyway, and 21.25 rounds to 21.... so, close enough for engineering work :D

    You can actually see that r is slightly more than 21, so the final answer is most satisfying.

    Another way to arrive at x = 13/4: Use the intersecting chord theorem by filling out the rest of the circle and extending the 12 cm segment horizontally until it hits the circle’s left side (that will make the chord 12 + 9 + 21 long). Similarly, extend the 16 cm segment vertically to hit the circle’s bottom (chord length 16 + x + 16 + x). Then you have the relation: (12)(30) = (16) (16+2x), giving x = 13/4.

    From there you can also use another formula to find the radius! The formula is x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + t^2 = 4r^2 with each letter representing a segment of intersecting chords, that was how i managed to get the answer. (Be aware that this formula can only be used if the chords are perpendicular to each other)

    It is best to do it with coordinate geometry as follows If the center of the circle is the assumed origin then the equation of the circle would be x^2 + y^2=r^2 Point A which lies on the top end of the 16cm line has coordinates (9,16+k) where k is the clearance of the 16cm line from the ground and the point B on the circle which is the right end of the 12cm line has coordinates (21,k) We have two equations that correlates R and k. Solve and you are done
