Find the value of x. ROUND TO THE NEAREST TENTH

Given:

Hypotenuse = 2.1 ft

Height = 1.4 ft

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

There is a right triangle in circle.

Let b be the base of the triangle.

Using Pythagoras theorem:

Subtract 1.96 on both sides.

Taking square root on both sides.

b = 1.56

The line from the center of the circle bisect the chord.

So x = 2b

x = 2 × 1.56

x = 3.12

x = 3.1 (nearest tenth)

The value of x is 3.1 ft.

i can you with this sweetie!

step-by-step explanation:

square root of 36/6 = 2.449489743

square root of 16/6 = 1.632993162

square root of 6 = 2.449489743

the answer is square root of 16/6 because the square root of 36/6 is the same answer as square root of 6 = 2.449489743
