Answer:

Explanation:

The base of the triangle used to solve for x (Pythagorean Theorem) is 15 - 9 = 7

The height of the right triangle is 4 so now you have enought to solve for x


Givens

a = 7

b = 4

c = x

Equation

x^2 = b^2 + a^2

Solution

x^2 = 7^2 + 4^2

x^2 = 49 + 16

x^2 = 65 Take the square root of both sides

√x^2 = √65

Answer x = √65
