Step-by-step explanation:

roots as exponents are fractions

if there is no root number next to the radical sign its assumed that its 1/2

3√2 is 2^(1/3)

√3 is 3^(1/2)

4√3 is 3^(1/4)

5√2 is 2^(1/5)

Answer:

x=15 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The two triangles in the diagram are:

ABC and BDC

First we have to find the third side (hypotenuse) of BDC so that we can use it to find the value of x.

Hypotenuse is the largest side of a triangle which is usually in front of the right angle.

So in BDC

$Base = BD =10cm\\Hypotenuse = BC = ?\\Perpendicular = CD = 2\sqrt{11}cm$

Applying Pythagoras theorem:

$(Hypotenuse)^2 = (Base)^2 + (Perpendicular)^2\\BC^2 = BD^2 + CD^2\\BC^2 = (10)^2 + (2\sqrt{11})^2\\BC^2 = 100+(2^2 * 11)\\BC^2 = 100+(4*11)\\BC^2 = 100+44\\BC^2 = 144\\\sqrt{BC^2} = \sqrt{144}\\BC = 12cm$

Solving for triangle ABC

$Base = BC = 12 cm\\Perpendicular = AB = 9 cm\\Hypotenuse = AC = x\\$

Applying Pythagoras theorem

$AC^2 = BC^2+AB^2\\x^2 = (12)^2 + (9)^2\\x^2 = 144+81\\x^2 = 225\\\sqrt{x^2} = \sqrt{225}\\x = 15cm$

Hence,

x=15 cm
