The width is 7 and the diagonal is 25 what is the height

Korvikt [17]

The height is 24.

We can use Pythagorean’s Theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2

substituting values we get:

a^2+7^2=25^2

Solving we get:
a^2+49=625
a^2=576
a=24.

So the height is 24.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

$x = 14$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x, the following equation is generated given the available information:

$\frac{(x + 7) + x)}{x + 7} = \frac{12 + 8}{12}$

$\frac{2x + 7}{x + 7} = \frac{20}{12}$

$\frac{2x + 7}{x + 7} = \frac{5}{3}$

Cross multiply

$3(2x + 7) = 5(x + 7)$

$6x + 21 = 5x + 35$

Collect like terms

$6x - 5x = - 21 + 35$

$x = - 21 + 35$

$x = 14$
