Use pythagorean's theorem to solve for missing sides of a right triangle.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a = 11
b = 17
c = We don't know yet so I'll call it x

11^2 + 17^2 = c^2

121 + 289 = c^2

410 = c^2

c = √410

c = 20.2

Thus, the answer is B.

Hope this helps, and May the Force Be With You!

Here is your answer

$\bold{x=12}$

REASON:

$Concept used$ : The opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal.

So, in above given figure

$3x+7=5x-17$ (measures of opposite sides)

$5x-3x= 17+7$

$2x= 24$

$x= 24/2$

$x= 12$
