Since TA and TB are tangents from the same point, TA = TB = x.

Since BU and UC are tangents from the same point, BU = UC = x.

Since CR and RD are tangents from the same point, CR = RD = 3.

Since SD and SA are tangents from the same point, SD = SA = 3.

 

TA + TB + BU + UC + CR + RD + SD + SA  =  18

   x + x   +    x + x     +    3 + 3     +   3 + 3     =  18

 

Can you finish this?
