To the nearest tenth, what is the length of the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle with a leg of 7 3 inches?

The formula that you would probably use is a2 +b2 = c2
since the triangle is isosceles, a and b are the same, you would set the formula up as 7(square root)3 + 7(square root)3 = c2
*when calculator used
42=c2
6.48=c

Im pretty sure I got this wrong sorry I tried :/
