Question

Find the length of side x in simplest radical form with a rational denominator.

Answer 1

`(11√(2))/(2)}` or 5.5√2

Explanation:

We can see that this is a 45-45-90 triangle

refer to the image below to see what that means

we can see that (in the image) 11=x√2

which means that x= 11/√2

to rationalize this fraction we mulitply both sides by √2 to get

`(11√(2))/(2)}` or 5.5√2

Answer 2

Explanation:

x =
`(11√(2) )/(2)`
