To solve for x (the hypotenuse), we can use the Pythagorean theorem, which states:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Where a and b are the two sides of a right triangle, and c is the hypotenuse. In this case, with one side being 12 and the other side being 5, we have:
12^2 + 5^2 = x^2
144 + 25 = x^2
169 = x^2
Now, we take the square root of both sides to solve for x:
x = √169
x = 13
Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse (x) is 13.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Where a and b are the two sides of a right triangle, and c is the hypotenuse. In this case, with one side being 12 and the other side being 5, we have:
12^2 + 5^2 = x^2
144 + 25 = x^2
169 = x^2
Now, we take the square root of both sides to solve for x:
x = √169
x = 13
Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse (x) is 13.

To solve for x (the leg), we can use the Pythagorean theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
where a and b are the two legs of a right triangle, and c is the hypotenuse. In this case, with one leg being x, the other leg being 11, and the hypotenuse being 61, we have:
x^2 + 11^2 = 61^2
x^2 + 121 = 3721
x^2 = 3721 - 121
x^2 = 3600
Now, we take the square root of both sides to solve for x:
x = √3600
x = 60
Therefore, the length of the leg (x) is 60.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
where a and b are the two legs of a right triangle, and c is the hypotenuse. In this case, with one leg being x, the other leg being 11, and the hypotenuse being 61, we have:
x^2 + 11^2 = 61^2
x^2 + 121 = 3721
x^2 = 3721 - 121
x^2 = 3600
Now, we take the square root of both sides to solve for x:
x = √3600
x = 60
Therefore, the length of the leg (x) is 60.
