Dylan has a square piece of metal that measures 17 inches on each side. He cuts the metal along the diagonal, forming two right triangles. What is the length of the hypotenuse of each right triangle to the nearest tenth of an inch?

24 Inch

Step-by-step explanation:

When the square piece of metal is cut along the diagonal, it forms two right triangles where each of the right triangle has legs of 17 inches.

To determine the length of the hypotenuse, we use the Pythagorean Theorem.

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

in the given figure, two triangles are inscribed in a circle where ∠bae ≅ ∠dae which makes the side be and de equal so we can write it as:

3x - 24 = x + 10

solving this equation for x to get:

3x - x = 10 + 24

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

therefore, the value of x = 17.

i think the answer is seven, for if i'm being useless °ω°
