Answer: 14 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangle:

  • Length = x
  • Width = x - 2

x + x + (x - 2) + (x - 2) = 52

2x + 2(x - 2) = 52

2x + 2x - 4 = 52

4x = 52 + 4

4x = 56

x = 14

Juan put three square tiles with sides 8 centimeters, 10 centimeters, and x centimeters together so that they form a right trian
Elan Coil [88]
Since the area of a square is equal to the square of one of its side's length, then the area should be equivalent to x^{2}.
A = x^{2} ---> equation (1)
By using pythagoras rule which states that the x^{2} = hyp^2 - opposite^2---> equation (2)
where the opposite side's length is 8 and the hypotenuse side's length is 10
by substituting by the values in equation (2) therefore,
x^{2} = 10^{2} - 8^{2} substitute this value in equation (1) then
A = x^{2} = 10^{2} -8^{2}
where A is the area of the square whose side is x
