Math Problem Statement
solve for x
Solution
The image you provided shows a right triangle inside a quarter circle. Let's analyze it step by step to solve for .
-
Dimensions:
- The quarter circle has radius 5 (from the total vertical height, 4 + 1).
- The base from to is divided into two parts: .
- The pink line is the hypotenuse of the right triangle with legs 3 and 4.
-
Using Pythagoras Theorem: In a right triangle, the relation between the legs and the hypotenuse is given by: Here, the legs are 3 and 4.
Thus, .
