What terms govern the length of this side?The basic rule of the triangle.First side length must be less than the sum of the other two sides.So to find X we must take the largest side of the triangles and compare them with amounts from other sides.

5+x>12
8+x>20    and it's system

x>7
x>12
general solution is x>12
<span>The least possible integral is 13.

PS: It's may be </span>yet 12, but in this case, triangle  BCD become segment.

Find the length of side x in simplest radical form with a rational denominator.
devlian [24]

Answer:

x = 2√2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a 45-45-90 triangle. This means that if the legs are x, then the hypotenuse is x√2.

In the case, the hypotenuse is already 4. So we have the equation:

x√2 = 4

Multiply both sides by √2

2x = 4√2

Divide both sides by 2

x = 2√2
