Question

A triangle has squares on its three sides as shown below. What is the value of x? Three squares having side lengths 3 cm, x cm, and 4 cm joining to form right triangle at the centre 3 centimeters 4 centimeters 5 centimeters 7 centimeters

Answer 1

Answer: The answer is C! Or it is 5cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

The value of x is 5 centimeters.

Therefore, option 3 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle has three sides 3,x and 4 cms

Since the triangle is right angle triangle  so, it will follow the Pythagoras theorem:

$hypotenuse^2=side^2+side^2$    (1)

We have been given three sides x,3 and 4

On substituting the values in (1) we get:

$x^2=3^2+4^2$

$x^2=9+25$

$\Rightarrow x=5$

Hence, the value of x is 5 centimeters.

Therefore, option 3 is correct.
