Find the value of x. write your answer in simplest form.
x=__

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle's hypotenuse is the side opposite of the 90 degree angle, which is x. And the other two sides are the two legs of the triangle.

The pythagorean theorem tells us:

Where c is the hypotenuse and a,b are the two legs

Plugging the information into the formula, gives us:

*Note: We used the property of radical    to simplify

maximum area = xy = (16)(32) = 512 ft2

to maximize the area of the garden, the side of the fence parallel to the side of the house should be 32 ft long, and the other two sides should both have length 16 ft.'
