Please somone I need to finish this last question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

apply pythagorus theorem to the above triangle and solving for x we get x=0.998

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

but if x =.998 then that means the sides are in the ratio Long Side 11.992 Middle Side 7.984 Short Side 8.994 So, the short side actually becomes the middle side. In order for the 3 sides to keep the same "long" "middle" and "short" relationship, x must be from 1.21 to 1.99.
