Answer:
AC = 3
≈ 6.71
Explanation:
using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.
the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides , that is
AC² = AB² + BC² = 6² + 3² = 36 + 9 = 45 ( take square root of both sides )
AC =
=
=
×
= 3
← exact value
AC ≈ 6.71 ( to the nearest hundredth )
