Question

Solution

Answer 1

Answer:

28.26658805 (I included every digit in case your teacher needs you to round)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find x, we need to isolate x by subtracting 15^2 and taking the square root of both sides.

Thus, we have:

$15^2+x^2=32^2\\x^2=32^2-15^2\\\sqrt{x^2} =\sqrt{(32^2-15^2)} \\\sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{799} \\x=28.26658805$
