Answer:

x= 1.73

Explanation:

first find the hypotenuse of the triangle below, this is going to need the pythagorean theorem i.e: c^2=a^2+b^2 where a=2, c=4

using this theorem, we can determine b^2 by plugging in :

4^2=2^2+b^2

16=4+b^2

12=b^2

b approximately equals to 3.46,

then use the pythagorean theorem again with the triangle involving x which is 3.46^2=x^2+3^2

x^2=12-9

x approximately equals to 1.73
