find c:

a² plus b² = c

72² plus 30²=c

5I84 plus 900

6084

now square root that

78

so C=78

Answer:

78 m

Explanation:

We need to use the Pythagorean theorem,
a^(2) + b^(2) = c^(2).

Substitute in
a and
b.


30^(2) + 72^(2) = c^(2)

Simplify.


900 + 5184 = c^(2)

Add.


6084 = c^(2)

Square root both sides.


78 = c

The hypotenuse is 78 m long.
