Question

find the length of the missing side. round to the nearest tenth if nessasary. 9 and 6 are the length of the legs and c is the hypotenuse.​

Answer 1

In the words that your describing it, I supposed we are talking about the pythagorean theorem

What is the formula for the theorem?

a^2+b^2= C^2

A being the height

B being the Bottom

C being the slant or hypotenuse

How to Solve?

Well supposed 9 is a and 6 is b

`9^(2)`+
`6^(2)`=
`c^(2)`

9 squared is 81 and 6 squared is 36

81+36= 117

So, 117=
`c^(2)`

Which means
`√(117)` is the answer or 10.8

Hope this helped!
