Question

Find the length of the missing hypotenuse i’ll be right triangle if the two legs have links five and 12. Hypotenuse=

Answer 1

The hypothenuse of a right triangle is calculated as:

`hypothenuse=√(a^2+b^2)`

Where a and b are the other two sides of the right triangle.

In this case, a=5 and b=12, then the hypotenuse is:

`\begin{gathered} hypothenuse=√(5^2+12^2) \\ hypothenuse=√(25+144) \\ hypothenuse=√(169) \\ hypothenuse=13 \end{gathered}`

Then, the answer is that the hypothenuse has a lenght of 13.
