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

What is 3/5 equivalent to
REY [17]
Multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same number and you'll get an equivalent fraction. For example, 3/5 times 2/2 equals 6/10, which is an equivalent fraction to 3/5. Multiply both by 8, and you have 24/40, which is also equivalent to 3/5. I hope this helped you tremendously! <span />
