Question

Look at the geometry question and solve for X.

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of x = 24.4 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

• a = 14

• b = 20

• c = x

For a right-angled triangle with sides a and b, the hypotenuse  c is defined as

$c=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}$

substituting c = x, a = 14 and b = 20

$c=\sqrt{14^2+20^2}$

$c=2\sqrt{149}$

$c = 24.4$ units

Therefore, the value of x = 24.4 units.
