Question

Solve for x to the nearest tenth

Answer 1

Answer:

11.40

Step-by-step explanation:

If we were to divide the shape into a rectangle and triangle, we would have the base of the triangle as 9 because two sides of the rectangle are equal, and 7 for the side because two sides of rectangle are equal and 14/2 is 7. Now we have two sides of a triangle 9 and 7. We know X is the hypotenuse because it is opposite to the right angle. We will plug it into the pythagorean theorem.

a^2+b^2=c^2

9^2+7^2=c^2

81+49=c^2

130=c^2

$\sqrt{130}$

11.40
