Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is 12 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the figure we see that

$(1).9^2+x^2=SR^2$

$(2).16^2+x^2=RQ^2$ and

$(3).SR^2+RQ^2=(9+16)^2$

Now from equations (1) and (2) we have values for $SR^2$ and $RQ^2,$ so we put those into the equation (3) and get:

$9^2+x^2+16^2+x^2=(9+16)^2$

$\rightarrow 337+2x^2=625$

$\boxed{\therefore x= 12.}$

Therefore the answer is 12 units.
