Question

Can someone help me ASAP please

Answer 1

x = 10.3

y = 5.8

Explanation:

To find both x and y, you can use the formula
`a^(2)` +
`b^(2)` =
`c^(2)`

a and b would be the sides that touch the right angle

so to find x, you would do
`9^(2)` +
`5^(2)` =
`x^(2)`

this would be: 81 + 25 =
`x^(2)`

then add it and you get: 106 =
`x^(2)`

now do the square root of 106 to get: 10.3 = x

Now plug in your other values to get y:
`5^(2)` +
`3^(2)` =
`y^(2)`

do the same thing here: 25 + 9 =
`y^(2)`

add your numbers: 34 =
`y^(2)`

square root 34: 5.8 = y
