Ganezh [65]

Answer:

x = $\sqrt{65}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude of the triangle must equal 4 because it is a right triangle with another leg of 3 and a hypotenuse of 5 (reason is due to the pythagorean theorem)

Therefore, the triangle on the right has legs of 4 and 7 and, again, use the phythagorean theorem to find 'x' (the hypotenuse)

$4^{2}$ + $7^{2}$ = $x^{2}$

16 + 49 = $x^{2}$

65 = $x^{2}$

x = sq rt 65
