Respuesta :

A^2 + b^2 = c^2
9^2 + 12^2= c^2
81 + 144 = 225
C= 15
The answer is 15 yards.

Answer:

Hi there!

The correct answer will be 15 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways you can go about solving this problem

Method One: Pythagorean Theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 then all you have to do is plug in the values

(12)^2 + (9)^2 = c^2 you should get c^2 = 225 then you square root both sides and you get c = 15

Method Two:  Pythagorean Identities

This triangle represents a 3,4,5 triangle

All the sides just tripled so that means the hypotenuse is 5*3 which equals 15
