Respuesta :

x is equal to 12.12436.

Answer:

√147 is your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the following formula: c² - b² = a²

In the formula, c = the hypotenuse (14), b = a side (7), a = the last side (x).

Set the equation: (14)² - (7)² = a²

Simplify: (14 * 14) - (7 * 7) = a²

Simplify: (196) - (49) = a²

Simplify: 147 = a²

Isolate the variable, a. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Root both sides.

147 = a² ⇒ √147 = √a² ⇒ √147 = a

a = x = √147

√147 is your answer.
