Question

Find the length of the third side. If necessary round the nearest tenth

Answer 1

Answer: 16.5

formula:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

(a and b are the lines that form a right angle and c is the line that doesn’t)

a = 16

c = 23

Answer 2

Answer:

16.5

Step-by-step explanation:

a² + b² = c²

x² + 16² = 23²

x² + 256 = 529

x² = 273

x = √(273)

x = 16.52271164...

x ≈ 16.5
