The length of the missing side is​

Answer 1

Answer:

85 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.

let h be the hypotenuse, then

h² = 40² + 75² = 1600 + 5625 = 7225 ( take the square root of both sides )

h = $\sqrt{7225}$ = 85

The most obvious way to solve this is by using the Pythogream therom which I strongly reccomend learning.

$a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}$
