Question

can I have some help?

Answer 1

Answer:

$x = \sqrt{58}$

Step-by-step explanation:

first, you should draw a line to separate the triangle from the rectangle

You can get the height if the triangle by saying 16-9

This will give you 7

The base of the triangle is 3 because the opposite side is given and the opposite sides of a rectangle are equal

Now that we have the measurements of the triangle we can use the Pythagorean theorem

${c}^{2} = {a}^{2} + {b}^{2}$

${x}^{2} = {7}^{2} + {3}^{2}$

${x}^{2} = 49+ 9$

${x}^{2} = 58$

$x = \sqrt{58}$
