Answer 7

Can u help me please

Answer 8

Call the diagonal line y
y^2 = 6^2 + 8^2 ( by Pythagoras theorem)

Now look at the other triangle
Y^2 = 12^2 + x^2 ( by pythagoras again)

Plug the value of y^2 you found iinto the above equation and solve for x^2

x will be the square rootof x^2

Answer 9

ok im working on it.

Answer 10

@welshfella i dont understand what to do lol.

Answer 11

@SolomonZelman

Answer 12

can you work out 6^2 + 8^2?

Answer 13

yeah its 100 right?

Answer 14

right - so thats the value of y^2
so
12^2 = x^2 + y^2

substituting for y^2 we gat

144 = x^2 + 100

now you need to solve this for x^2

Answer 15

all you have to do now is subtract 100 from both sides of the equation and you'll get the value of x^2

Answer 16

is it 44?

Answer 17

@welshfella

Answer 18

yes
so x = squre root of 44
you can get this on ur calculator.

Answer 19

that will be 6 point something

Answer 20

so 44 is the answer?

Answer 21

@welshfella

Answer 22

No 44 is not the answer
They want you to find value of x
the answer is the square root of 44
which you can find using your calculator

Answer 23

your PC's calculator will do it

Answer 24

gotta go right now..

Answer 25
