Question

For the following right triangle, find the side length x . Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

Answer:

the actual answer would be 7.14 for leg b, but if you round it you will get 7.14 same answer ^^

Step-by-step explanation:

you can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the answer for leg b, you square 7 which will get you 49.  then you square 10 which will get you 100.  then you subtract 100 - 49 = 51.  then you find the square root of $\sqrt{51\\}$ = 7.14

the formula for this will be - a^2 + b^2 = c^2
