Answer this one for me thanks ppppp

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

16.6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to help us solve this problem: $a^2+b^2=c^2$ where c is the longest side of a right triangle (the hypotenuse) and a and b are the other two sides

It's safe to assume that x is the longest side in this triangle, making it the c value. Plug 14 and 9 into the equation as a and b and solve for x:

$14^2+9^2=x^2\\196+81=x^2\\277=x^2\\x=16.6$

Therefore, the value of x is 16.6 units when rounded to the nearest tenth.

I hope this helps!

Answer:

3.3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question, we can draw out a proportion

= Small pentagon = Large pentagon

= x/7 = 7/15

Cross Multiply

x × 15 = 7 × 7

15x = 49

x = 49/15

x = 3.2666666667 cm
