Answer 1

Answer:

X = 20.6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem: $A^{2} =B^{2} +C^{2}$

A = 41.2 in, while B = 35.7 in and we are solving for C.

$41.2^{2} = 35.7^{2} +C^{2}$

$1697.44 = 1274.49 + C^{2}$

Now solve for C

$422.95 = C^{2}$

Take the square root

$20.5657482237 = C$
