Question

What is the value of x?

Enter your answer in the box.

x =

Answer 1

Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

What you do is the Pythagorean Theorem.

c^2=a^2+b^2. We have c which is 10 and we have a which is 6.

10^2=6^2+x^2.

100=36+x^2.

64=x^2. You will then square root it to get

x=8

Answer 2

As we know that,

According to the Pythagoras Theorem,

${h}^{2} = \: {b}^{2} + {p}^{2}$

$= > \: {10}^{2} = \: {6}^{2} + {x}^{2}$

$= > \: {10}^{2} - \: {6}^{2} = {x}^{2}$

$= > \: 100 - \: 36 = {x}^{2}$

$= > \: 64 = {x}^{2}$

$= > \: {8}^{2} = {x}^{2}$

Squares of x and 8 is cancelled.

$= > 8 \: = x$

$= > \: x = 8 \:$

8 is perpendicular.
