Answer: x=5

Explanation:

If you broke your triangle in half, it would create a right triangle, with:

long leg = 4

hypotenuse = x

short leg = 3 >it's half of the full base of the main triangle

You can use pythagorean theorem to solve:

c²=a²+b² >substitute

x²= = 4²+3² >simplify

x² = 16 + 9

x² = 25 >take square root of both sides

x = 5
