find x:
15.196=2*sqrt(3^2+x^2) + 10-x
Take 10-x from both sides, then square both sides. Does that make sense?
square both sides
so do i do this?Quote:

Yes, expand the LHS then group like terms.
is the right hand side proper?
cas i tried (2*sqrt(3^2+3^2))^2 and got 72
and 18+2(3)^2 is 36.
so is this the correct RHS: 2(18+2x^2)
Try
