To get x, we will use the Pythagoras theorem
With the hypotenuse equal to 12m
[tex]\begin{gathered} x^2=12^2-6^2 \\ x^2\text{ = 144 - 36} \\ x^2\text{ = 108} \end{gathered}[/tex]
[tex]\begin{gathered} x\text{ = }\sqrt[]{108\text{ }}=\text{ 10.39} \\ \text{ x = 10. 4m (to the nearest tenth)} \end{gathered}[/tex]
