Answer 1

x = the square root of 289, (or 17)

Answer 2

x = 17

Explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides , that is

x² = 15² + 8² = 225 + 64 = 289 ( take square root of both sides )

x =
`√(289)` = 17
