Answer:
13.9 (if x is the Hypotenuse)
Step-by-step explanation:
which one is the Hypotenuse (the side opposite of the 90 degree angle) ?
because that determines the calculation.
if x is the Hypotenuse then Pythagoras looks like this
x² = 7² + 12² = 49 + 144 = 193
x = sqrt(193) = 13.9
if 12 is the Hypotenuse, then it looks like this
12² = 7² + x²
144 = 49 + x²
95 = x²
x = sqrt(95) = 9.75
