A right-angled triangle has sides of lengths (x+5)cm, (x-3)cm and 9cm. Calculate the value of x
1 answer:
Answer:
x=4.0625 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean theorem states that the square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle equals the sum of the squares of the two legs.
Not knowing which is the hypotenuse, lets assume that (x+5)cm is the hypotenuse:
(x+5)^2= 9^2+(x-3)^2
(x^2+10x+25)=81+(x^2-6x+9)
x^2+10x+25=81+x^2-6x+9
16x=65
x=4.0625
Checking:
(4.0625+5)^2=9^2+(4.0625-3)^2
82.1289=82.1289
