Answer:
[tex]x\approx36.25units[/tex]
Explanations:
The given triangle is an isosceles triangle with a height of 33 units and a base of 30 units.
To get the value of x, we will use the Pythagoras theorem on one of the right angles formed by the triangle as shown:
According to the theorem;
[tex]\begin{gathered} hypotenuse^2=opposite^2+adjacent^2 \\ x^2=33^2+15^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Simplify the equation for the value of "x"
[tex]\begin{gathered} x^2=1089+225 \\ x^2=1,314 \\ x=\sqrt{1,314} \\ x\approx36.25 \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]
Hence the value of x from the figure is approximately 36.25 units
