Question

Find the value of X. If necessary write in radical form

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2} \\6^{2} +7^{2} =x^{2} \\\sqrt{85} = x$

Answer 2

Answer:

sqrt(85) =x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse

a^2 + b^2 = c^2  where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

6^2 + 7^2 = x^2

36+49 = x^2

85 = x^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(85) = sqrt(x^2)

sqrt(85) =x
