Answer 2

Solution :-

we know that,

• Side opposite to 90° in a right angled ∆ = Hypotenuse .
• (Base)² + (Perpendicular)² = (Hypotenuse)² . { By pythagoras theorem) .

given that,

• P = 12x
• B = 16x
• H = 10 .

so,

→ P² + B² = H²

→ (12x)² + (16x)² = 10²

→ 144x² + 256x² = 100

→ 400x² = 100

→ x² = (100/400)

→ x² = (1/4)

→ x² = (1/2)²

→ x = (1/2) (Ans.)

Hence, value of x will be (1/2).
