Find x.

A composite figure consisting of two right angled triangles lying next to each other. Two sides of the triangle on the left are labeled as 13 millimeters and 5 millimeters. Two sides of the triangle on the right are labeled as x and 35 millimeters.

Respuesta :

The value of x is 28 millimeters in the composite figure of two right-angled triangles lying next to each other

What is a composite figure?

A composite figure is a figure that is produced from the combination of two geometric shapes together.

The diagrammatic expression of a composite figure consists of two right-angled triangles lying next to each other can be seen in the image attached below.

For the left-side right-angled triangle, we have:

13² = h² + 5²

h² = 13² - 5²

h = √(169-25)

h = 12

Recall from the diagram that:

h² = pq

  • If p = 5 and q = x

12² = 5x

x = 144/5

x ≅ 28 millimeters
