Answer 1

Answer:

x = the square root of 289, (or 17)

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides , that is

x² = 15² + 8² = 225 + 64 = 289 ( take square root of both sides )

x = $\sqrt{289}$ = 17
