Answer:
x = 2.3
Explanation:
Since we know all three sides, what we do here is multiply side a & b's lengths together and divide by the hypotenuse. (a + b)/c
(2.5 * 6)/6.5
Step 1: Multiply 2.5 by 6 to get 15.
15/6.5
Step 2: Convert 6.5 into a whole number by multiplying it by 10. Make sure to do that to the 15 as well.
150/65
Step 3: 150/65 simplifies to 30/13 (GCF: 5).
30/13
Step 4: 30/13 becomes 2 4/13.
2 4/13
Step 5: 2 4/13 rounds to 2.3
2.3 is the value of x.
