Given:

The right triangle with side 5 cm and 5 cm.

By using the pythagorean theorem,


\begin{gathered} \text{Hypotenuse}^2=side^2+side^2 \\ \text{Hypotenuse}^2=5^2+5^2 \\ \text{Hypotenuse}^2=25+25 \\ \text{Hypotenuse}^2=50 \\ \text{Hypotenuse}^{}=\sqrt[]{25*2}\ldots\ldots\ldots\text{ Taking square root} \\ \text{Hypotenuse}=5\sqrt[]{2} \end{gathered}

Answer:


\text{Hypotenuse}=5\sqrt[]{2}
