The legs of a right triangle are 4 units and 7 units. What is the length of the hypotenuse? (4 points)
square root 33 units
square root 65 units
33 units
65 units

Answer 1

The hypotenuse is square root of 65

Explanation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

legs of the right triangle are a and b. Just substitute 4 for a and 7 for b and solve.

4^2+7^2=16+49=65

c^2=65

Find the square root of both sides to get

c=the square root of 65
