Question

PLEASE HELP ME (answer only if you know) please do step by step

Answer 1

x = 8.5

Explanation:

Do solve this equation you will need to use the pythagorean theorem.

First start by plugging in the numbers.

`7^(2)+ x^(2)=11^(2)`

The x will be what you are solving.

7 squared is 49 and 11 squared is 121.

`49+ x^(2)=121`

Move the variable to one side. Do this by subtracting 49 from both sides.

`x^(2) = 72\\`

Now find the square root of 72 in order to get rid of the x squared. (Convert to decimal if needed).

x = 8.5

Hope this helped.
