That's a question about the Pythagorean Theorem.
We use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the value of one side in a right triangle.
This theorem says that:
- <em>a</em> is the hypotenuse (It's the opposite side the right angle).
- <em>b</em> and <em>c </em>are cathetus (They're the adjacent sides the right angle).
Okay, now, let's go to solve this problem! In our figure, we have two cathetus. Their values are 10 and 7 and we have to find the value of <em>x </em>(the hypotenuse). Let's change this information in that formula.
Therefore, the value of <em>x </em>is .
I hope I've helped. :D
