OpenStudy (haseeb96):

as u know here the hypotensue is not given to u so first find Hypotenuse bu phythagoras theorem here is the formula (hyp:) ^2 = (Base)^2 + ( perp:) ^2

OpenStudy (haseeb96):

let x is the hypotenuse x^2 = (12) ^2 + (16)^2 x^2=144 + 256 x^2 = 400 now taking square root on both sides then equation becomes x =20 so yur hypotenuse is 20

OpenStudy (haseeb96):

now the perimeter means sum of all the sides here in the triangle only three sides lie so 20+ 12 +16 =48 48 is the perimeter of triangle
