√
Answer:
15inches
Explanation:
For this triangle,we can use Pythagoras' theorem
The state is that : a²+b²=c²
In this figure,notice that a shorter side needs to be found,so after writing the Pythagoras formula in the usual way,the formula has to be rearranged to make x² the subject
a²+b²=c²
8²+x²=17²
64+x²=289
x² = 289- 64
x² = 225
x = √225 =15inches
