Answer 3

You can use the Pythagorean Theorem

Answer 4

you should get B

Answer 5

I did thanks bro

Answer 6

medal pls

Answer 7

yup

Answer 8

pythagorean theorem states that a\[a ^{2} + b ^{2}=c ^{2}\] If \[a ^{2}\] is a leg and \[b ^{2}\] is the other leg, you can solve for c\[c^{2}\

So the next time you solve for this question you should use pythagorean theorem. Plug in A as the first leg and B as the other. Once you have squared them both add them together and then find the square root of it. Do this to all other questions you have involving 2 legs and finding the last side length. Happy to help ^u^

Answer 9

20

Answer 10

in right angle triangle hypotenuse^2=(side1)^2+(side2)^2
so H*H=12*12+16+16=144+256=400=20*20
H=20
