Answer:


x=13.23

Step-by-step explanation: We can find the value of x using the Pythagorean theorem, this is done as follows:


\begin{gathered} 9^2+x^2=16^2 \\ x^2=16^2-9^2\rightarrow x=\sqrt[]{16^(2-)9^2} \\ x=\sqrt[]{256-81}=\sqrt[]{175}=13.23 \\ \therefore\rightarrow \\ x=13.23 \end{gathered}
