Question

The Pythagorean Theorem

Please show me how to do this, how to find x because its not on the hypotenuse.

Answer 1

The formula is a to the second power pulse b to the second power equals c to the second power so you solve like this
A=x
B=12
C=13

X+144=169 then you solve for x which is 5

Answer 2

Explanation:

x² + 12² = 13²

x² = 169 - 144

x² = 25

x = 5
