Answer:

x = 13.08 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to use pythagoras theorem as this is a right angled triangle:

$a^2 + b^2 = c^2$

As we do not know one of the sides, we need to change the subject of the equation to either a or b:

$b^2 = c^2 - a^2$

Substitute the values in:

$b^2 = 14^2 - 5^2$

$b^2 = 196- 25\\b^2 = 171\\$

Now square root both sides to find b:

$\sqrt{b^2} = \sqrt{171}$

b = $\sqrt{171}$

b = 13.08

x = 13.08 ft

Hope this helps!

The easiest way to determine the score is to use a calculator or spreadsheet and the appropriate probability function.

If you want the top 10%, the score corresponds to the 90th percentile. That score is 316.

If you want the top 15%, the score corresponds to the 85th percentile. That score is 313.

Answer:

x = 3

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔABC is a 45°, 45°, 90° triangle. The longest side ( 6 $\sqrt{2}$ ) can be $x\sqrt{2}$ while AB and CB are x. Because 6 $\sqrt{2}$ is equal to $x\sqrt{2}$ , you can see that x is equal to 6. Both AB and CB are equal to 6. ΔBDC ( CDB ) is a right triangle ( 30°, 60°, 90° ) so, BD = x, CB = 2x, and CD = $x\sqrt{3}$ . CB is equal to 6 so 2x = 6, x = 3.
