Question

What is the value of x ​

Answer 1

using the formula of C^2 = A^2 + B^2

10^2= 6^2 + B^2

100 = 36 + B^2

100 - 36 = B^2

64 = B^2

Square Root of 64 = 8

value of x = 8

Answer 2

Using the pythagorean theorem, the value of x would be eight. The equation of Pythagorean is

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(C is the hypotenuse. Hypotenuse being the length of 10) Applying the lengths leaves us with the equation

36 + x^2 = 100.

You then subtract 36 from 100 to get X alone on the opposite side of the equation.

X^2 = 64

Lastly, you take the square root of 64. Therefore, the final answer will be eight.
