The answer is B x=18

For this equation, we have one shorter side angle and the hypotenuse.

Do a^2 + b^2 = c^2

We would find the shorter side of one triangle first, and then add two of the product and that would be the value of x,

12^2 + b^2 = 15^2

144 + b^2 = 225

b^2 = 81

b= 9

This is half the x since we could only find one of the two triangle's shorter sides

9 + 9 = 18

X = 18 is your answer
