Question

Please explain this to me.

Answer 1

• The value of x is 12 units.

Explanation:

We know that:

• Formula: h² = a² + b²

Let's solve using Pythagoras theorem.

• => 13² = 5² + x²
• => 169 = 25 + x²
• => 169 - 25 = x²
• => 144 = x²
• => √x² = √144
• => x = √144
• => x = 12

Hence, the value of x is 12 units.
