My bad. Is the 60 the length of the hypotenuse or the degree of one of the angles? :)

anonymous · Answer

its the hypotenuse. @KamiBug

kamibug · Answer

Okay, thanks. :) 
Since this is a right triangle, you'll use the Pythagorean Theorem! 
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
(where c is the length of the hypotenuse and a&b are the lengths of the legs)
Plug the known values into the equation and solve for a.
a^2 + 12^2 = 60^2
Can you take it from here? :)

i got 58.78 or 24 sqrt 6 ? should that be further simplified or would it be E ?

kamibug · Answer

24 sqrt. 6 is correct. So it would be E, yes. :)
