What are the possible lengths for x, the third side of a triangle, if two sides are 21 and 10

To solve we need to use Pythagoras theorem ( a^{2} +  b^{2} =  c^{2} )

There are 2 possible lengths for x: hypotenuse or one of the 2 shorter sides.

Hypotenuse:
10^{2} + 21^2 = x^{2}
100+441= x^{2}
\sqrt{541} =  \sqrt{ x^{2} }
23.3≈x

Shorter leg:
10^2 + x^2=21^2
x^2= 21^2-10^2
x^{2}= 441-100 
\sqrt{ x^{2} } = \sqrt{341}
x≈18.47
