Answer:
x=34
Step-by-step explanation:
1. formula for Pythagorean Theorem for right trangles is a^2+b^2=c^2
2. a=30 and b=16, so (30)^2+(16)^2=c^2
3. (30)^2=900 and (16)^2=256
4. 900+256=1156
5. 1156=c^2
6. [tex]\sqrt{1156} =\sqrt{c^2}[/tex]
7. the square root of 1156 is 34, so c=34
8. The missing side of the triangle, labeled as "x" is 34
