Question

Solve for x round your answer to the nearest tenth

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of x is 13.7.

Step-by-step explanation:

☆We are going to use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this.

☆Pythagorean Theorem:

${a}^{2} + {b}^{2} = {c}^{2}$

☆Remmeber: a = leg, b = leg, c = hypotenuse or the diagonal.

☆Let's plug in according to the pythagorean theorem and solve!

${a}^{2} + {b}^{2} = {c}^{2} \\ {x}^{2} + {9.2}^{2} = {16.5}^{2} \\ {x}^{2} + 84.64 = 272.25 \\ \frac{ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: - 84.64 = - 84.64}{ {x}^{2} = \sqrt{187.61} } \\ x = 13.7$
