Question

If (10, 24, x) is a Pythagorean triplet, then the value of x is​

Answer 1

Answer:

26

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a=10

And m=a/2

i.e 10/2=5

for Pythagorean Triplets

a= 10 (given)

b= m^2-1

=5^2-1

=25-1

=24 (given)

Now for X

X=m^2+1

=5^2+1

=25+1

=26.

Answer 2

Answer:

the value of x = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

let x is smaller than 24.

so, 24² = 10² + x²

 = 576 = 100 + x²

 = 576 - 100 = x²

 = 476 = x²

 = x = √476

 = x = 21.81

now, we take x as greater than 24.

so, x² = 24² + 10²

 = x² = 476 + 100

 = x² = 576

 = x = √576

 = x = 26

so, the value of  x = 26.
