Question

in the given figure find the length x​

Answer 1

We shall first find AC, using Pythagoras theorem,

AD² = AC² + CD²

10² = AC² + 6²

AC² = 100 - 36

AC² = 64

AC = 8 cm

Now,

AB² = AC² + BC²

17² = 8² + x² [BC = x]

x² = 289 - 64

x² = 225

x = 15 cm

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x= 15 c.m
