Answer:
Option A. 4√5
Explanation:
To obtain the value of x, we must first obtain the value of y as shown in the attached photo.
The value of y can be obtained by using the pythagoras theory as illustrated below:
In this case y is the longest side i.e the Hypothenus.
y² = 4² + [4√3]²
y² = 4² + [4² × (√3)²]
y² = 4² + [4² × 3]
y² = 16 + [16 × 3]
y² = 16 + 48
y² = 64
Take the square root of both side
y = √64
y = 8
Finally, we shall determine the value of x by using the pythagoras theory as illustrated below.
Note: x is the longest side i.e the Hypothenus in this case.
x² = 4² + 8²
x² = 16 + 64
x² = 80
Take the square root of both side
x = √80
x = √(16 × 5)
x = √16 × √5
x = 4√5
Therefore, the value of x is 4√5.
