I mean, the previously given answer is obviously wrong, because the hypotenuse is the longest side so how could the missing side be 505?
OpenStudy (candy13106):
no its 114
OpenStudy (ashley_fay):
it can't be 505
OpenStudy (ashley_fay):
then how could it be 114??
OpenStudy (candy13106):
cause u do 12 times 19 then divide by 2

OpenStudy (candy13106):
u are so wrong
OpenStudy (noseboy908):
\[12^2+x^2=19^2\]
OpenStudy (candy13106):
still wrong
OpenStudy (noseboy908):
first solve for 12 squared and 19 squared. solve for x from here.
