Answer:

we know that given triangle is right angled triangle.

➢ By using Phythagoras Theorem:-

$\sf \longrightarrow \: (AC)^2 = (AB)^2 + (BC)^2$

$\sf \longrightarrow \: ( √(80) )^2 = (x)^2 + (8)^2$

$\sf \longrightarrow \: 80 = (x)^2 + (8)^2$

$\sf \longrightarrow \: 80 \: = x^2 \: + \: 8^2$

$\sf \longrightarrow \: 80 \: = x^2 \: + \: 64$

$\sf \longrightarrow \: 80 \: - 64 = x^2 \:$

$\sf \longrightarrow \: 16 = x^2 \:$

$\sf \longrightarrow \: x^2 \: = 16$

$\sf \longrightarrow \: x \: = √(16)$

$\sf \longrightarrow \: x \: = 4 \: units$
