Chapter 8.5, Problem 5PSA

Solution

To Calculate: Value of x .

The value of x is $1$

Given information: The measures $10,5,2$ are provided in the question which will help to find the solution.

Formula used: Here, we are using the concept of hypotenuse leg similarity.

Calculation: Here, by using HL similarity

➔ $\frac{\text{10}}{\text{5}}\text{=}\frac{\text{2}}{\text{x}}$

➔ $\text{x=1}$

Hence, the value of x is $1$
