The correct answer is the square root of 296 which is approximately 17.20

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve it

a^2 + b^2 = c^2
14^2 + 10^2 =c^2
196 + 100 = c^2
196+100=square root 296

Answer:

Explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem. The hypotenuse, 14 square should be equal to the sum of x squared + 10 squared.

14^2 = 196

10^2 = 100.

So, 196 = 100 + x^2


x = √(96)
