Question

Use Pythagorean theorem to find right triangle side lengthsFind the value of c in the triangle shown below.682Choose 1 answer:A = 28B= 64=9= 10

Answer 1

EXPLANATION

Given the Right Triangle, we can apply the Pythagorean Theorem in order to get the value of x as shown as follows:

`\text{Hypotenuse}^2=Short_-leg^2+Long_-leg^2`

Replacing terms:

`x^2=6^2+8^2`
`x^2=36+64=100`

Applying the square root to both sides:

`x=\sqrt[]{100}=10`

Hence, the solution is x=10
