Geometry Level 5

Above shows a triangle X Y Z XYZ with X Y = 18 , Y Z = 16 , X Z = 14 XY= 18, YZ=16, XZ=14 . The bisector of angle X X meets the straight line Y Z YZ at point W W .

The circle passing through point X X and touching Y Z YZ at W W cuts X Y XY and X Z XZ at points M M and N N respectively.

Find the distance M N MN .
