Answer:

[tex]x = 2\sqrt{55}[/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the values for the leg and hypotenuse:

a (leg) = 6 cm

c (hypotenuse) = 16 cm

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the value of the other leg, x:

[tex]x = \sqrt{c^{2} - a^{2} }[/tex]

[tex]x = \sqrt{16^{2} - 6^{2} }[/tex]

[tex]x = 2\sqrt{55}[/tex]  

Answer:

Your answer is [tex]\sqrt{220}[/tex] or 14.8323969...

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]A^{2} +B^{2} =C^{2} \\x^{2} + 6^{2} =16^{2}[/tex]

[tex]x^{2} =16^{2} -6^{2} \\[/tex]

[tex]x^{2}[/tex] = 256 - 36

x = [tex]\sqrt{220}[/tex]
