Hi there!

We can use pythagorean theorem to solve this problem here. The easiest way to go about solving this problem is to use the theorem to find the hypotenuse, then dividing it by 5 to find the value of x, since the hypotenuse is 5x.

WORK:
27^2 + 36^2 = h^2     (plugging into theorem)
729 + 1296 = h^2     (squaring the numbers)
h^2 = 2025              (adding the numbers together)
hypotenuse = 49    (taking the square root of 2025)
49/5 = x                 (dividing 49 by 5 to find x)
x = 9.8                  (dividing)

Hope this helps!! :)
If there's anything else that I can help you with, please let me know!

When a polar molecule causes a charge redistribution in a nonpolar molecule, what are the molecules of the mixture most likely e
White raven [17]

Answer is: dipole-induced dipole interactions.

Intermolecular forces are the forces between molecules or particles.

There are several types of intermolecular forces: hydrogen bonding, ion-induced dipole forces, ion-dipole forces and van der Waals forces.

A dipole-induced dipole interaction is a weak attraction that results when a polar molecule induces a dipole in a nonpolar molecule by disturbing the arrangement of electrons in the nonpolar species.
