Given a right angle triangle:

The hypotenuse of the triangle = 17

The legs of the triangle are the sides 14 and x

We will find x using the Pythagorean theorem as follows:


x^2+14^2=17^2

Solve for x:


\begin{gathered} x^2=17^2-14^2=93 \\ \\ x=\sqrt[]{93} \end{gathered}

So, the answer is the first option


x=\sqrt[]{93}
