Sagot :

Answer:

The correct option is C. (x=2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Length of the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle (h) = 2.5 cm

Length of one of the side (a) = 1.5 cm

Let the length third side be 'b' cm

By Pythagoras theorem

h² = a² + b²

Adding Values on both sides

⇒ (2.5)² = (1.5)² + b²

⇒ 6.25 = 2.25 + b²

⇒ 6.25 - 2.25 = b²

⇒ 4 = b²

⇒ √4 = b

⇒ 2 = b

b = 2
