Type Your Question Go!!! Answer by jim_thompson5910(34119) About Me (Show Source):You can put this solution on YOUR website!I'm assuming that the triangle is a right triangle and that side 3 is the hypotenuse.
We basically have this triangle set up:
Since we can see that the triangle has legs of 8 and x with a hypotenuse of 12, we can use Pythagoreans theorem to find the unknown side.
Pythagoreans theorem:
a%5E2%2Bb%5E2=c%5E2 where a and b are the legs of the triangle and c is the hypotenuse
8%5E2%2Bx%5E2=12%5E2 Plug in a=8, b=x, and c=12. Now lets solve for x
6+4+%2B++x++%5E+2+=+1+4+4 Square each individual term
+x++%5E+2+=+1+4+4+-+6+4 Subtract 64 from both sides
+x++%5E+2+=+8+0 Combine like terms
s+q+r+t+%28++x++%5E+2+%29+=+s+q+r+t+%28+8+0+%29 Take the square root of both sides
x=4%2Asqrt%285%29 Simplify the square root
Which approximates to... x+=+8+.+9+4+4+2+7+1+9+0+9+9+9+9+1+6
So our answer is x+=+8+.+9+4+4+2+7+1+9+0+9+9+9+9+1+6....
