Answer:

(for the two triangles in the middle of the page)

c=5 and z=8

<br>

Explanation:

using pythagoreas theorem

alt^2+base^2=hypotenuse^2

similarly

in triangle 1)

4^2=3^2=c^2

16+9=25

=>5(sqaure root of 25)

in triangle 2)

6^2+x^2=10^2

x^2=10^2-6^2

x^2=100-36

x^2=64

=>x=8

<br>

for the third question(diagonal of park)

similar formula is used

20^2+21^2=hypotenuse or diagonal length of park

400+441=841

root 841= 29
