A sequence of three real numbers forms an arithmetic progression with a first term of $ 9$. If $ 2$ is added to the second term and $ 20$ is added to the third term, the three resulting numbers form a geometric progression. What is the smallest possible value for the third term in the geometric progression?

A round table has radius $ 4$. Six rectangular place mats are placed on the table. Each place mat has width $ 1$ and length $ x$ as shown. They are positioned so that each mat has two corners on the edge of the table, these two corners being end points of the same side of length $ x$. Further, the mats are positioned so that the inner corners each touch an inner corner of an adjacent mat. What is $ x$?
