Answer 2

The value of x in the given figure is √89.

Given:

A figure with dimensions.

To Find:

The value of x in the given figure.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the triangle ABP.

Let BP be l

Tan 45° = $\frac{l}{5}$

          l  = 5 = BP

Now Using pythagoras theorem

Let m be 8 and n be 5

x = $\sqrt{m^{2}+n^{2} }$

x = $\sqrt{8^{2}+5^{2} }$

x = √89.
