Question

Picture is attach

Answer 1

u know pythogoras theorem?

Answer 2

We were learning them but i don't know them well

Answer 3

do you know what a right angled triangle is?

Answer 4

Yes

Answer 5

do you know what a hypotenuse is ?

Answer 6

I heard it by my teacher but i'm not sure how to use it

Answer 7

the side opposite to the 90 degree angle is called the hypotenuse

Answer 8

in ur picture,
the diagonal and the two sides form a triangle. can u recognize which side is the hypotenuse?

Answer 9

Yess

Answer 10

so which one?

Answer 11

My teacher said that it can be either sides

Answer 12

there is only one side opposite to the right angle

Answer 13

can u recognize which one?

Answer 14

Generally in a right angled triangle, the hypotenuse is the longest side.

Answer 15

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh @FitzIncorporated right

Answer 16

so can u recognize which side in my figure is the hypotenuse?

Answer 17

Can you? :D It's the longest one, and the one opposite the right angle.

Answer 18

I can't do it for you, I don't get paid - but it's not hard. This is the easiest part of the question. Do you have a calculator that can figure out square roots?

Answer 19

Ummmmm i'm confused a bit but is it the side with the little square?

Answer 20

So the angle with the square is a right angle. And the hypotenuse is opposite the right angle. If you can't tell the longest side, you can draw a little line, like this:

Answer 21

Okay

Answer 22

The hypotenuse *won't ever* be touching the little square.

Answer 23

Actually, that's a good way of looking at it - the hypotenuse is the ONE SIDE that ISN'T touching the right angle.

Answer 24

So the question isn't just asking you to find out the hypotenuse, it's asking you to find how long the side with the 'X' on is. For that, you use the pythagorean theorem.

Answer 25

So the square of the hypotenuse is the same as the squares of the other two.
