I need help ASAP!!! FIND THE SEGMENT Please explain how u got the answer

Answer 1

x = 960

Explanation:

Using the Altitude- on- Hypotenuse theorem

( leg of large triangle )² = ( part of hypotenuse below it) × ( whole hypotenuse), so

x² = 576 × (576 + 1024) = 576 × 1600 = 921600 ( take square root of both sides )

x =
`√(921600)` = 960
