IT DEPENDS WEITHER THE X IS THE HYPOTENUSE OR ONE OF THE SIDES OF A RIGHT TRIANGLE.
\n" ); document.write( "IF X IS THE HYPOTENUSE THEN:
\n" ); document.write( "3.1^2+8.7^2=X^2
\n" ); document.write( "9.61+75.69=X^2
\n" ); document.write( "85.3=X^2
\n" ); document.write( "X=SQRT85.3
\n" ); document.write( "X=9.236 ANSWER.
\n" ); document.write( "IF X IS ONE OF THE SIDES THEN:
\n" ); document.write( "X^2+3.1^2=8.7^2
\n" ); document.write( "X^2+9.61=75.69
\n" ); document.write( "X^2=75.69-9.61
\n" ); document.write( "X^2=66.08
\n" ); document.write( "X=SQRT66.08
\n" ); document.write( "X=8.129 ANSWER.\r
