Question

Find the value of the missing leg in the figure below. Leave the answer in simplest radical form.

Answer 1

The answer is A (6 √2) Because your formula ends up being 7^2 + x^2 = 11^2

7^2 + x^2 = 11^2
Becomes
49 + x = 121
So subtract 49 on both sides to get x by itself
x = 72
And Find the square root of x
72 = 6 √2
