ANSWER=5.2

Step-by-step explanation

This triangle shows a example of the Pythagorean Theorem, which means the equation is gonna be

a^2+b^2=c^2

The variables a and b are the straight sides of the triangle, while the variable c is the curved side on the triangle, or what we are trying to find in this question.

Firstly let’s take the two sides that already have a number shown, also known in the Pythagorean Theorem as sides a and b.

2^2+4.8^2=c^2

Now we want to square the two given numbers to get the equation

4+23.04=c^2

Now we add the two given numbers that we have now squared to get the equation

27.04=c^2

The final step will now be to take the number (27.04) and square root it, which should give you the answer, 5.2
