Another way of doing this would be to solve for the coefficients

Answer:
Below!
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras theorem, I will solve all of the problems.
<h3>________________________________________________</h3>
<u>Question 9:</u>
- 10² = 6² + x²
- => 100 = 36 + x²
- => 100 - 36 = x²
- => 64 = x²
- => x = 8
<h3>________________________________________________</h3>
<u>Question 10:</u>
- 26² = 24² + x²
- => 676 = 576 + x²
- => 676 - 576 = x²
- => 100 = x²
- => x = 10
<h3>________________________________________________</h3>
<u>Question 11:</u>
- 15² = 12² + x²
- => 225 = 144 + x²
- => 225 - 144 = x²
- => 81 = x²
- => x = 9
<h3>________________________________________________</h3>
<u>Question 12:</u>
- x² = 8² + 12²
- => x² = 64 + 144
- => x² = 208
- => x = √208
- => x = 14.2 (Rounded)
<h3>________________________________________________</h3>
<u>Question 13:</u>
- 7² = 2² + x²
- => 49 = 4 + x²
- => 49 - 4 = x²
- => 45 = x²
- => x = √45
- => x = 6.7 (Rounded)
<h3>________________________________________________</h3>
<u>Question 14</u>
First, let's solve for the variable x using Pythagoras theorem.
- => 5² = 3² + x²
- => 25 = 9 + x²
- => 16 = x²
- => x = 4 units
Now, let's solve for the variable y using Pythagoras theorem.
- (3 + 6)² = 5² + y²
- => (9)² = 25 + y²
- => 81 = 25 + y²
- => y² = 56
- => y = √56
- => y = 7.5 (Rounded) units

<h3>________________________________________________</h3>
<u>Question 15:</u>
First, let's find the value of the variable y using Pythagoras theorem.
- 8² = 6² + y²
- => 64 = 36 + y²
- => 28 = y²
- => y = √28
- => y = 5.3 (Rounded) units
Now, let's find the value of the variable x using multiplication.
- x = 2y
- => x = 2(5.3)
- => x = 10.6 units
Answer (Nearest tenth)
- x = 10.6 units
- y = 5.3 units

Smaller Number = X
5x - 23 = Larger Number
X + (5x - 23) = 61
6x - 23 = 61
6x = 84
X = 14
<span>Diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular and bisect each other. This means this rhombus is composed of four right triangles with legs of length 6 cm and 8 cm, with their hypotenuses forming the perimeter of the rhombus. The Pythagorean theorem a^2+ b^2 = c^2 can be used to find the length of the hypotenuse. 6^2+8^2 = 36+64 = 100. The square root of 100 is 10, so the length of a side of the rhombus is 10 cm.</span>
