What is the value of x Triangle with sides 10 6 x-6

Grace [21]3 years ago

Given that the triangle is a right angled triangle, to solve for x we shall use the Pythagorean theorem given by:
c^2=a^2+b^2
where:
c is the hypotenuse
a and b are the legs.
c=10
a=6
b=(x-6)
thus plugging the values in the equation and solving for x we get:
10^2=6^2+(x-6)^2
100=36+x^2-12x+36
100=x^2-12x+72
0=x^2-12x-28
factoring the above we get:
0=(x+2)(x-14)
hence
x=-2 or x=14
given that there is no negative distance then
x=14
thus the value of x is 14
