In right angled triangle

Hypotenuse ² = perpendicular² + base²

  • Base = 22

  • Perpendicular = 27

  • Hypotenuse = x


\implies \: {x}^(2) = {27}^(2) + {22}^(2)

Square of 27 and 22 are 729 and 484 respectively.


\implies \: x = 729 + 484


\implies \: x {}^(2) = 1,213


\implies \: x = 34.82 \: (approx)
