x = 17.2 feet
x = 22.5 inches
y = 13.4 meters
c = 56.6 centimeters
1st one:
x^2 + 16^2 = 20^2
x^2 = 400 - 256 = 144
x = 12 , SO THE BOT IS WRONG AGAIN

2nd one:
x^2 + 20^2 = 25^2
x^2 = 625-400 = 225
x = 15, SO THE BOT IS WRONG

3rd ....
...
x = 9 THE BOT IS WRONG AGAIN

4th
THE BOT IS WRONG AGAIN

0/4 , that's awfull
AAAaannndd the bot gets it wrong yet again!

For the first three, think of the 3-4-5 right triangle, scaled up
for the last one, use the 7-24-25 triangle

memorize a few of these basic triples, and you can save yourself some calculation.
