Question

Find the value of x in the following triangles.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

using Pythagoras thermo

Answer 2

Answer:

10.5cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's cut this triangle into triangle a and triangle b

Triangle A (Given)

Side = 6cm

Hypotenuse = 6.5cm

Assuming this is a right angled triangle

We use pythagorean theorem

a²+b² = c²

6² + b² = 6.5²

36 + b² = 42.25

b² = 42.25 - 36

b² = 6.25

b = 2.5cm

Triangle B (Given)

Side = 6cm

Hypotenuse = 10cm

Assuming this is a right angled triangle

We use pythagorean theorem

a²+b² = c²

6² + b² = 10²

36 + b² = 100

b² = 100 - 36

b² = 64

b = 8cm

There fore x = 8 + 2.5cm

=10.5cm
