Answer 1

Input data

Pythagoras theorem states that “In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides“. The sides of this triangle have been named as Perpendicular, Base and Hypotenuse. Here, the hypotenuse is the longest side, as it is opposite to the angle 90°.

a = ?

`\begin{gathered} a=\sqrt[]{13^2-5^2} \\ a=12 \end{gathered}`

Now for x

`\begin{gathered} x=\sqrt[]{35^2+12^2} \\ x=37 \end{gathered}`

The value for x would be x = 37
