Find the value of x, if $21^{\sqrt{x}}+20^{\sqrt{x}} = 29^{\sqrt{x}}$.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
Using Pythagoras theorem
a2 + b2 = c2
$21^{\sqrt{x}}+20^{\sqrt{x}} = 29^{\sqrt{x}}$
Compare the whole equation a2 + b2 = c2
So √x = 2
x = 4
212 + 202 = 292
441 + 400 = 841
841 = 841
So x = 4 satisfy this equation
