Question

16 pythagorean theorem
find the hypotenuse, x, of the right triangle. round your answer to the nearest integer.
7 m
11 m
a x = 23 m
b x = 8 m
c x = 18 m
d x = 13 m

Explanation:

Step1: Apply Pythagorean Theorem

$x^2 = 7^2 + 11^2$

Step2: Calculate squares

$x^2 = 49 + 121$

Step3: Sum the values

$x^2 = 170$

Step4: Find square root

$x = \sqrt{170} \approx 13$

Answer:

D. x = 13 m
