Answer:

  1. 8.2
  2. 12.1

Explanation:

You want the missing side lengths in two right triangles, given the hypotenuse and the length of one leg.

Pythagorean theorem

The Pythagorean theorem is useful for finding the missing side in a right triangle. For sides a, b, and hypotenuse c, it tells you ...

a² +b² = c²

Then the missing side is ...

a² = c² -b²

a = √(c² -b²)

1. b=10.1, c=13

The missing side is ...

a = √(13² -10.1² = √66.99 ≈ 8.2

The missing length is about 8.2.

2. b=7, c=14

The missing side is ...

a = √(14² -7²) = √147 ≈ 12.1

The missing length is about 12.1.
