Question

A right triangle is shown
Enter the value of x.

Answer 1

Explanation:

use the pythagorean theorem.

a^2+b^2=c^2

6^2+8^2=c^2

36+64=100

√100=10

***IMPORTANT. don't forget to square root the answer you get from a^2+b^2. you are putting the answer in squared form which isn't going to be correct, so don't forget to root it before you enter.

Answer 2

10

Explanation:

Using $A^2 + B^2 = C^2$, we know that $A = 6$ and $B = 8$. $8^2 = 64$ and $6^2 = 36$. $64 + 36 = 100$, and $√100 = 10$.
