Question

#1 plz thx!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

We have to use pythagorean theorem. The equation is
`a^(2) + b^(2) = c^(2)` so we plug in the numbers (hypothenuse is always C in the equation)
`a^(2) + 8^(2) =10^(2)` now we solve:


`a^(2) +64=100` Exponents


`a^(2) =36` Subtract

a=6 Square Root

x=6 Answer
