Question

what is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle shown? Round your number to the nearest tenth if necessary

Answer 1

Right triangle....length of 2 legs known and hypotenuse needed....Pythagorean Theorem..

\[\large a^2 + b^2 = c^2\]

\(\large a \space \space \text{and} \space \space b \) are the 2 legs you know and \(\large c\) is the length of the hypotenuse...so you can plug in your numbers and solve for 'c'

So here

\[\large 6^2 + 11^2 = c^2\]
\[\large c = \sqrt{11^2 + 6^2}\]

Answer 2

so it would be 157.0 :D ??

Answer 3

Don't forget to square root the number

\[\large \sqrt{157} = \space? \]

Answer 4

2 ? :o

Answer 5

wait 12.52 ?

Answer 6

Hmm well round up 12.53 :)

Answer 7

lol okay :D
