One of the legs of a right triangle measures 13 cm and the other leg measures 7 cm. Find the measure of the hypotenuse. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.
Step-by-step: Use the equation a^2+b^2=c^2 Plug in 13 for a and 7 for b 13^2+7^2=c^2 Multiply the number by themselves 13•13+7•7=c^2 169+49=c^2 218=c^2 Square root both side 14.76=c Round the nearest tenth 14.8
