12
Step-by-step explanation:
using pythagoras theorem
here 15 is hypotenuse since it is opposite 0f 90 degree
9 and x are the other smaller sides of a triangle
according to pythagoras thorem the sum of square of two smaller sides of a triangle is equal to the square of hypotenuse. So,
9^2 + x^2 = 15^2
81 + x^2 = 225
x^2 = 225 - 81
x^2 = 144
x =
x = 12
