Answer 1

36.2

Explanation:

Assuming that the dotted line is a perpendicular bisector, we can say that it splits the side that is 30 units long into 2 sets of 15 units. Then, we can use the pythaogrean theorem to solve (Leg A is 33 and Leg B: 15). a^2+b^2=c^2

33^2+15^2=c^2

1089+225=c^2

1314=c^2

Square root of 1314 = square root of c^2

36.2 aapproximately c
