Question

One leg of a right triangle is 3.2 centimeters long. The length of the second leg is 5.7 centimeters. What is the length of the hypotenuse? Round to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

Answer:

Here we need to use the Pythagorean Theorem. Which is: a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

3.2^2 + 5.7^2 = c^2

10.24 + 32.49 = c^2

42.73 = c^2

6.5 = c

I hope this helps!
