OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
It depends on what the third side is.

Okay. I'll use what I can see. I'll try to solve, but like skullpatrol said, we'lll need a SAS measurement.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Thank You both!:)
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
Is the diagram drawn to scale?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Actually, we could use cos sin and tan to answer. I'll get the answer right away! :D

Just use a ruler and measure it.
If you know how long 4 units is then you can solve for x.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yeah... That might be a little easier to do.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yeah, I'm not sure it's drawn to scale://
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Oh. Scratch that then xD
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
Assume that it is.

Ok, what will be the next step
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
Measure how long the length of the 4 side is.
OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4 cm
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Anyone there?
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
Good. Now measure the side labeled x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
3
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
cm?

Yes
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
So, 3 is your answer. Because of the proportion 4cm/4 = 3cm/x
x = 3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
These are the answer choices: 2, 4sqrt2, 2sqrt 2, and cannot be determined
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
Definitely "cannot be determined."
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Oh even though if my measurements weren't accurately correct right ?

Yes, they depend on "scale."
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Oh ok so it's definitely cannot be determined, thank you so much! I appreciate it!

Thanks for trying to learn :-)
