Question

the legs of a right triangle are 75 and 100. what is the length of the hypotenuse?
A: 5 square root 5
B: 250
C:125
D: 625

Answer 1

right triangle us pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

75^2 + 100^2 = C^2

5625 +10000 = c^2

15625 =c^2

c=Sqrt(15625) = 125

hypotenuse = 125

 answer is C

Answer 2

The answer is C, Remeber A^2+B^2 = C^2
