Find the length of the sides of the right triangle

Question

2x-7

2x

13

find the length of the right side triangle with the given variables

Answer 1

The sum of any two sides much be larger than the third side:

2x-7 + 2x > 13

4x - 7 > 13

4x > 20

x>5

2x-7 + 13 > 2x

2x+6 > 2x

6 > 0 , which tells us nothing

2x+13 > 2x-7

13 > -7, which tells us nothing

so x>5
