Answer:

12 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem:  a² + b² = c²

256 + b² = 400

b² = 144

b  = \sqrt{144}

b = 12

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

In the last step, you can see that the fraction \frac{1}{5} has been multiplied by its reciprocal \frac{5}{1}, making it cancel out. The reciprocal has been multiplied to both sides, so all you need to do is multiply \frac{6}{3} · \frac{5}{1} :

6 · 5 = 30

3 · 1 = 3

<u><em>So now you should have the fraction:</em></u>

x = \frac{30}{3}

<u><em>But, you can still simplify the fraction by dividing 30 by 3:</em></u>

x = 10
