Question

Find the missing length indicated Please help, no links

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 135

Step-by-step explanation:

m = length of perpendicular line to hypotenuse

81/m = m/144

m² = 81 x 144 = 11664

m =√11664 = 108

Using the Pythagorean theorem:

x² = 81² + 108² = 6561 + 11664 = 18225

x = √18225 = 135

Answer 2

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x = 135

Step-by-step explanation:

Side x is the geometric mean of the hypotenuse segments it touches.

  x = √(81×(81+144)) = √81×√225 = 9×15

  x = 135
