Answer:

Solution given:

Since the given triangle is isosceles and right angled triangle

perpendicular [p]=base[b]=x

hypotenuse [h]=6

we have

by using Pythagoras law

p²+b²=h²

x²+x²=6²

2x²=36

x²=36/2

x²=18

x= $\sqrt{18}$

x= $\bold{3\sqrt{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

25(2x) + 25(3y)

25 · (2 · x) + 25 · (3 · y)

(25 · 2) · x + (25 · 3) · y Associative property (a · b) · c = a · (b · c)

(25 · 2)x + (25 · 3)y
