Answer:
The value of x:
- [tex]x\:\approx \:8[/tex] in
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]b=4.8[/tex] in
[tex]c=9.3[/tex] in
a = x
we have to determine 'x'.
As the given triangle is a right-angled triangle.
Pythagorean Theorem:
For a right-angled triangle, with sides 'a' and 'b', the hypotenuse 'c' is defined as
[tex]c=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}[/tex]
so
[tex]a=\sqrt{c^2-b^2}[/tex]
as
substituting the values
[tex]x=\sqrt{9.3^2-4.8^2}[/tex]
[tex]x\:\approx \:8[/tex] in
Thus, the value of x:
- [tex]x\:\approx \:8[/tex] in
