Answers and Explanations
1. Answer - Option C
Explanation -

2. Answer - Option D
Explanation -
[latex]{x}^{2} = {5}^{2} + {5}^{2}[/latex]
x = [latex]\sqrt{50} = 5 \sqrt{2}[/latex]
3. Answer - Option B
Explanation -

[latex]{x}^{2} = {6}^{2} + {8}^{2}[/latex]
x = [latex]\sqrt{100} = 10[/latex]
4. Answer - Option D
Explanation -

[latex]{x}^{2} = {8}^{2} + {2}^{2}[/latex]
x = [latex]\sqrt{68} = 2 \sqrt{17}[/latex]
5. Answer - Option D
Explanation -

[latex]{x}^{2} = {15}^{2} + {12}^{2}[/latex]
x = [latex]\sqrt{369} = 3 \sqrt{41}[/latex]
