As gien by the question

There are given that the right angle triangle.

Now,

To find the value of x, use Pythagoras theorem:

So,

From the Pythagoras theorem;


\begin{gathered} x^2+8^2=16^2 \\ x^2+64=256 \\ x^2=256-64 \\ x=\sqrt[]{192} \end{gathered}

Hence, the value of x is shown below:


x=\sqrt[]{192}
