Two equal circles with centers P and Q are tangent at O . A common line is tangent to both the circles at M and N respectively. Point B lies on the arc OM and point C lies on the arc ON. Points A and D lie on the tangent MN. If the radius of each circle is r and each side of the square ABCD is x, find x.
