Answer:

WR ≈ 13.862

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

WR² + RT² = WT²

WR² + 12.1² = 18.4²

WR² + 146.41 = 338.56 ( subtract 146.41 from both sides )

WR² = 192.15 ( take the square root of both sides )

WR =
√(192.15) ≈ 13.862 ( to the nearest thousandth )
