Anyone please???????

Answer 1

Answer:

B sqrt17

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2+b^2=c^2

Answer 2

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf B)\: x=\sqrt{17}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem

The equation for the Pythagorean Theorem is $\tt a^2+b^2=c^2$

* a and b are the lengths of the legs, and c is the hypotenuse.*

(To know which side is the hypotenuse look at longest side which is across the right angle).

a= x, b=8, c=9

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

Let's Plug in the side lengths:

$\sf x^2+8^2=9^2$

Evaluate 8^2 and 9^2:

$\sf x^2+64=81$

Subtract 64 from both sides:

$\sf x^2+64-64=81-64$

$\sf x^2=17$

Take the square root of both sides:

$\sf x=\sqrt{17}$
