x = 5 cm because this is a right triangle.
3 squared + 4 squared must = x squared
so 9 +16 = x squared
25 = x squared
5 = x
Is that what you were looking for? Or did I post too soon?

FIND X. Now I get it. (He who laughs last... probably didn't get the joke.)

The second question is fun.
The clue is that the shape ABC is not a triangle.
