 \Delta x= Path difference

=n \lambda[n=1] \\

=\lambda \\

2 \sqrt{x^2+64}+\frac{\lambda}{2}-2 x=\lambda

\lambda= \frac{v}{f}=\frac{340}{90} \\\lambda= \frac{V}{f}=\frac{340}{90} \\

\lambda= \frac{34}{9} \\

2 \sqrt{x^2+64}+\frac{34}{18}-2 x=\frac{34}{9} \\

2 \sqrt{x^2+64}-2 x=\frac{34}{9}-\frac{34}{18}

2 \sqrt{x^2+64}-2 x=\frac{17}{9} \\

2 \sqrt{x^2+64}=\frac{17}{9}+2 x \\

18 \sqrt{x^2+64}=18 x+17 \\

324\left(x^2+64\right)=324 x^2+289+612 x \\

324 x^2+20736=324 x^2+289+612 x \\

20736-289=612 x

20447=612 x \\

x=\frac{20447}{612} \\

x=33.42 \\

x=2 x \\

x=2 \times 33.42 \\

x=66.84
