Answer:


√(33)

Explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem For the Triangle with Sides 11, 13, and Height(blue dashed line)

b=height (blue-dashed line)


11^2+b^2=13^2


169-121=b^2


48=b^2


√(48) =b

Use the Pythagorean Theorem Again for sides 9, x, and height which is
√(48)


x^2+√(48)^2=9^2

(
√(48)^(2) is
48


81-48=x^2


33=x^2


x=√(33)

Hope it Helps!
