Question

A right triangle has one side of length 8 and a hypotenuse of length 10. How long is the third side of the triangle?

Answer 1

h=sqrt(x^2+y^2)
here h=10 and x=8 put the values in eqn
here x and y are sides of tringle and h is hypotenuse
so,
10=sqrt(8^2+y^2)
so squaring on both sides u wil get


now find value of y..by taking sqr root of y..
