Hello turkshcutie11!
[tex] \huge \boxed{\mathfrak{Question} \downarrow}[/tex]
Find the value of x.
[tex] \large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}[/tex]
It's given that the triangle in the figure is a right triangle (a triangle with one angle as 90°). So, we can use the pythagoras property to solve this question.
__________________
Given sides :-
- 5 units (base)
- 3 units (altitude)
- x units (hypotenuse)
__________________
Using pythagoras property...
Hypotenuse ² = Base² + Altitude ²
x² = 5² + 3²
x² = 25 + 9
x² = 34
x = √34
x = 5.83 units (1st option).
