Question

Please help answer this

Answer 1

Answer: 24.2

Explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem.

`a^2 + b^2 = c^2`

We already know a and b.

We can plug it in into the theorem.

`10^2 + 22^2 = c^2`

`584 = c^2`

Then, take the square root of 584.

`√(584)` ≈ 24.2 (24.16 rounded up is 24.2)

Answer 2

Answer: 24.2

Step-by-step explanation: Use the Pythagorean Theorem:

10^2 + 22^2 = x^2

100 + 484 = x^2

x^2 = 584

x = 24.16609..

which is close to 24.2
