In the picture below, the backboard of the basketball hoop forms a right triangle with the supporting rods. Find the approximate distance between the rods where they meet the backboard. X = _ (round to the nearest tenth) Options
7.9 inches
9.1 inches
11.4 inches
13.9 inches

perimeter = 10 +  √10  units

explanation:

first, we will need to get the length of each line using the distance formula which is as follows:

distance = 

1- length of ab:

ab =   = 5 units

2- length of ac

length of ac is the same as ab = 5 units

3- length of bc:

bc =   =  √10  units

now, we can get the perimeter by adding the side lengths as follows:

perimeter = 5 + 5 +  √10

perimeter = 10 +  √10  units

hope this : )
