i'm always getting stuck on algebra
@toga
Using the Pythagorean Theorem, we know that a² + b² = c², where c is the hypotenuse. In this case, we are given the lengths of the two legs of the right triangle: a = 12 and b = 16. So, we can plug those values into the equation: 12² + 16² = c² 144 + 256 = c² 400 = c² To solve for c, we can take the square root of both sides: √400 = √c² 20 = c Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse is 20 units.

144 + 256 = c²

To solve for c, we can take the square root of both sides:
√400 = √c²
20 = c
Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse is 20 units.
