Question

For the following right triangle, find the side length x.​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 10

Explanation:

Using Pythagoras Theorem:

• a² + b² = c²

Solve:

8² + 6² = x²

x² = 64 + 36

x² = 100

x = √100

x = 10

Answer 2

Answer:-

10

Formula used:-

Pythagoras theorem

(a² + b² = c²)

Explanation:-

Let ,

a = 8

b = 6

c = x

Using Pythagoras theorem,

=> 8² + 6² = x²

=> x² = 64 + 36

=> x² = 100

=> x = √100

=> x = 10

Hence, the length of x is 10.
