Answer:
x = 3.4
Step-by-step explanation:
→You can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve this:
[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]
→The "a," and "b," are the legs, 3 and 1.6, and the "c," is the hypotenuse, which we are trying to find.
[tex]1.6^2+3^2=c^2[/tex]
[tex]2.56 + 9 = c^2[/tex]
→Add like terms (2.56 and 9) together:
[tex]11.56 = c^2[/tex]
→We need to get "c," by itself, and to do this we need to square root both sides, like so:
[tex]\sqrt{11.56} =\sqrt{c^2}[/tex]
[tex]3.4 = c[/tex]
