Mathematics

algol [13]3 years ago

Answer:

x =12

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for x

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

16^2 + x^2 = 20^2

256 +x^2 = 400

Subtract 256 from each side

256-256 +x^2 = 400-256

x^2 =144

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) =sqrt(144)

x = 12
