1 over 5a to the 2nd power
Ok so the value of x is 6 those lines on the 6 and x lines means that they are congruent. Then to figure out y you would use Pythagorean theorem 6^2+6^2
36+36=72
Square root 72 is about 8.5
8.5 would be y. Let me know if this is right and if this helps
Using the Pythagorean Theorem we can solve this:
20^2 + 6^2 = X^2
400 + 36 = x^2
436 = x^2
x = SQRT(436)
x = 20.9 feet long
