Question

Look at this triangle.
B
8 cm
A
22 cm
Work out length AB.

Answer 1

23.41cm

Explanation:

Using Pythagoras theorem

a²+b² = c²

Where a and b are sides of the triangle and c is the Hypotenuse.

If we substitute the values

B= 8 cm

A= 22 cm

22²+8² = c²

484 + 64= c²

√548 = c

C= 23.41

Hence, length AB is 23.41cm
