Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

split the triangle into two and you will get another smaller triangle as shown in what I have drawn

so notice that there's a right angle?? this means that this is a right angle triangle and you can use Pythagoras theorem to solve it

so by Pythagoras theorem, 5^2= 3^2 + x^2

then you can solve for x
