Solve the x to the nearest tenth
1 answer:
Answer:
x=11.2
Step-by-step explanation:
So, to solve for x you have to use pythag Theorem. X is the hypotenuse
If you separate this shape into two parts, splitting the slant portion and the rectangle part. You will have a right triangle, and then you would find all the legs of the triangle.
The shorter leg, which is on the left side. Since the left side including the slanted part is 13 and we had to split the shape the shorter leg would equal 5
13-8=5.
And since the longer leg has the same length as the rectangle, which is 10. You would take both these numbers.
then, Square them and add them. So, 5x5=25
and 10x10=100
100+25=125 afterwards you find the square root.
