Question

A right triangle is graphed on a coordinate plane. Find the length of the hypotenuse. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. ​

Answer 1

Answer:7.6

Explanation:

Answer 2

7.6

Explanation:

From the graph, we know the lengths of two legs.

a = 3

b = 7

Knowing this, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for c, the hypotenuse. (remember, a^2 + b^2 = c^2)

c = √a2 + √b2

= √(7)2 + √(3)2

= √49 + √9

= √58

= 7.6
