Question

One of the legs of a right triangle measures 15 cm and the other leg measures 10 cm. Find the measure of the hypotenuse. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

Answer:

18.0 (use 18 if 18.0 is not an answer choice)

Step-by-step explanation:

15²+10²=225+100 = 325

√325 = 18.028 or 18.0 (use 18 if 18.0 is not an answer choice)

Answer 2

The hypotenuse should be 18.03 cm.
