We can use a modified form of the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of x, also known as side b.
Pythagorean Theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
We can fill in the values of a^2 and c^2, and then solve for b.
14^2 + b^2 = 25^2
196 + b^2 = 625
Subtract 196 from both sides.
b^2 = 429
√ both sides.
b = 20.7
<h3>The value of x, or b, is equal to 20.7.</h3>
Answer:
x=40
Step-by-step explanation:
8(1/2x + 5) = 200
4x + 40 = 200
4x = 160
x = 40
Answer:
x = 85 deg
Step-by-step explanation:
We can see that there are two straight lines that intersect and that the two angles given are opposite angles.
Because they are opposite angles, the two angles have the same value, i.e
(x + 5) = 90 (subtract 5 from each side)
x = 90 - 5
x = 85 deg
