Answer:
x=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a = 16.733
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + 9^2 = 19^2
a^2 = 19^2 - 9^2
a^2 = 361-81
a^2 =280
Taking the square root of each side
sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(280)
a = 16.73320053
Rounding to the nearest thousandth
a = 16.733
-2 < -3 (I think so anyway)
