Question

Find the x in each triangle

Answer 1

hi

Explanation:

you can find the answer according to the Pythagorean theorem

1.

`{5}^(2) + {x}^(2) = {13}^(2) \\ 25 + {x}^(2) = 169 \\ {x}^(2) = 169 - 25 \\ {x}^(2) = 144 \\x = √(144) \\ x = 12 \: dm`

2.

`{10}^(2) + {24}^(2) = {x}^(2) \\ 100 + 576 = {x}^(2) \\ {x}^(2) = 676 \\ x = √(676) \\ x = 26 \: in`

hope it helps

have a nice day
