Step1: Identify triangle type
It's a right triangle, so use Pythagorean theorem: \(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\), where \(c = 13\), \(b = 12\), find \(a = x\).
Step2: Apply Pythagorean theorem
\(x^2 + 12^2 = 13^2\)
\(x^2 + 144 = 169\)
\(x^2 = 169 - 144 = 25\)
\(x = \sqrt{25} = 5\)
Step1: Identify triangle type
Right triangle, use Pythagorean theorem: \(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\), where \(a = 12\), \(b = 5\), find \(c = x\).
Step2: Apply Pythagorean theorem
\(x^2 = 12^2 + 5^2\)
\(x^2 = 144 + 25 = 169\)
\(x = \sqrt{169} = 13\)
Step1: Recall triangle inequality
For a triangle with sides \(a\), \(b\), \(c\), \(|a - b| < c < a + b\). Here \(a = 17\), \(b = 6\).
Step2: Calculate range
\(|17 - 6| < x < 17 + 6\)
\(11 < x < 23\)
