use the pythagoren theorem to solve x
Well the equation is (A^2)+(B^2)=(C^2)A= xB= 2xC will always be the longest side because it is the Hypotenuse = 25So if you plug in those numbers into the equation...(x^2) + (2x^2) = (25^2)x^2 + 4x^2 = 625Combine like terms5x^2 = 625Divide by five to both sidesx^2 = 125Then Square root,x = sqrt(125)x = sqrt(25* 5)x = 5sqrt(5)
