Answer 1

8. Missing side = 50

9. Missing side = 8

Explanation:

In order to find the hypotenuse, we have to use the Pythagorean Theorem which states:

`a^(2) +b^(2) = c^(2)`

Where a and b are sides and c is the hypotenuse.

`14^(2) +48^(2) = c^(2)`

196 + 2304 =
`c^(2)`

2500 =
`c^(2)`

`c` =
`√(2500)`

`c = 50`

`15^(2) +b^(2) = 17^(2)`

225 +
`b^(2)` = 289

`b^(2)` = 64

`b` =
`√(64)`

`b=8`
