Question

Can you answer my question please and thank you

Answer 1

50

Explanation:

I did this by inspection because {7, 24, 25} is a common trio, but ill just break it down for you.

Let the hypotenuse be x

Then
`14^2+48^2=50^2`

2500 =
`x^2`

x=50 or -50 (not applicable because you cannot have a negative length).

So the hypotenuse is 50.

Note: Common trios such as {3, 4, 5}, {5, 12, 13}, {7, 24, 25}, {8, 15, 17} are worth remembering as you can often multiply them in such questions. Such as in this question, {7, 24, 25} times 2 is {14, 48, 50}.

Hope you have a nice day!
