Answer:
x=6.6 y=12
Step-by-step explanation:
To know this problem, you need to know the Pythagorean theorem, though I think you know this since it seems like you are doing a quiz or something like that. [tex]a^{2}[/tex] + [tex]b^{2}[/tex] = [tex]c^{2}[/tex]
Solving x:
- Plug the numbers in
- [tex]8.8^{2}[/tex]+[tex]x^{2}[/tex]=[tex]11^{2}[/tex]
- 77.44+[tex]x^{2}[/tex]=121
- 121-77.44=43.56
- [tex]x^{2}[/tex]=43.56
- [tex]\sqrt{x}[/tex]=[tex]\sqrt{43.56}[/tex]
- x=6.6
Solving for y:
- Plug the numbers in
- [tex]6.6^{2} +10^{2} = y^{2}[/tex]
- 43.56+100=[tex]y^{2}[/tex]
- 143.56=[tex]y^{2}[/tex]
- [tex]\sqrt{143.56} =\sqrt{y}[/tex]
- 12=y
This might be too late, but I hope you were able to do well on your thing!
