Question

PLEASE HELP, WILL FAN AND MEDAL. :)
Find the length of side x.(Look in the next comment for the picture)
a. x = sqrt325
b. x = 15
c. x = sqrt253
d. x = 11

Answer 1

Pythagorean Theorem is needed to do this problem.

Answer 2

Do you know the theorem? If not, then we need to post it. @tvinsant

Answer 3

Yes. I tried but I came up with a different answer :? so I'm kinda stuck.
the formula is a^2+b^2+c^2=180

Answer 4

You have the sum of the angles of a triangle mixed up with the P Theorem

Answer 5

a^2+b^2 = c^2 where a and b are legs and c is the hypotenuse.

Answer 6

OHHHHHH

Answer 7

okay... sorry lol

Answer 8

so the answer is A.

Answer 9

Legs are 6 and x.

Answer 10

so the answer is A. I don't know.

That is why we are writing the equation - so that there is no need to guess.

Answer 11

because when you square the two and sum it up, the answer is 325. Then you'd have to square it so it'd be x=sqrt325

Answer 12

I did not get that.

Answer 13

lol ummm

Answer 14

but is the answer A?

Answer 15

x^2 + 6 ^2 = 17^2

Answer 16

>>but is the answer A? I do not know.

Answer 17

ohhh nvm is C.

Answer 18

its*

Answer 19

If you don't want to solve this x^2 + 6 ^2 = 17^2 , I'll move along.

Answer 20

x^2+36=289
x^2=289-36
x^2=253
sqrtx=sqrt253

Answer 21

The MaPaw site has a glitch.

sqrtx=sqrt253 should be x = sqrt253

Answer 22

oh okay

Answer 23

Now, at long last, I agree with you that C is the correct option.

Answer 24

Thank you :) Have a nice day!

Answer 25

Same to you and you're welcome.
