lolz :P

Answer 6

so im wondering if i should use like 2^2 + 6^2... or something... i dont really get it

Answer 7

nope need that too

Answer 8

so do i solve from the equation i just gave?

Answer 9

looks like by similar triangles \(\frac{x}{8}=\frac{2}{x}\)

Answer 10

is that x/6 = 2/x or did i read that wrong? its kinda tiny :P

Answer 11

on account of \(x\) is the short side of the large triangle, which has hypotenuse 8, and the hypotenuse of the small triangle, which has short side 2

Answer 12

\[\frac{x}{8}=\frac{2}{x}\]

Answer 13

oh okay thanks :) so it should be
x^2/16

Answer 14

which is pretty convenient, since the first step in solving would be to "cross multiply" and get
\[x^2=16\]

Answer 15

which would end up as 4 right?

Answer 16

yes
