Answer:

the answer is
\sqrt 8, or 2.83 cm.

Explanation:

You need to use the pythagorean theorem to solve this. It states that
a^(2) + b^(2) = c^(2). a is one leg of the triangle, b is the other leg, and c is the hypotenuse (the slanted line that connects them). We need to do
2^(2) to find this. Since
2^(2) is 4, we know both legs are 4
cm^(2). 4 + 4 = 8. Since c is squared, we need to find the square root of 8, or just leave it as is. the final answer is
√(8), or 2.83. Hope this helped! :]

Answer:

2.828

Explanation:

Pythagoras theorem (a^2)+(b^2)=(c^2)

also written as (base^2)+(altitude^2)=(hypotenuse^2)

Base=2

altitude=2

=Base = 2*2=4

=Altitude = 2*2=4

4+4

=8

√8

=2.828
