Solve for the value of x in the triangle below, round to the nearest tenth, one decimal place, if needed.
A. X=3.8
B. x=4.2
C. x=6.0
D. x=3.2
To solve for the value of x in the triangle, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Let x be the unknown side length, we can use x as the hypotenuse in this case, since it is across from the right angle:
8^2 + 6^2 = x^2
64 + 36 = x^2
100 = x^2
Taking the square root of both sides:
x = 10
So, the value of x in the triangle is 10.
C. x=10
