Question

Find x in each triangle

Answer 1

Answer:

x=20

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

21 ^2 + x^2 = 29^2

441+x^2 =841

Subtract 441 from each side

x^2 = 841-441

x^2 = 400

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(400)

x = 20

Answer 2

Answer:

$\boxed{x = 20}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Well to find x we need to use the Pythagorean Theorem, which is.

$a^2 + b^2 = c^2$

We have a which is 21 and 29 which is c.

$(21)^2 + x^2 = (29)^2$

$441 + x^2 = 841$

$-441$

$x^2 = 400$

$x = 20$

So the missing side "x" is 20.

Hope this helps :)
