Answer:

c = 9.9 to the nearest tenth

Explanation:

Pythagoras theorem = c² = a² + b²

a= 7, b = 7, c =?

c² = 7² + 7²

c² = 49 + 49

c² = 98

c =√98

c = 9.8995

Answer to the nearest tenth

c = 9.9

Answer:9.9

Explanation:

We know that pythagorean Theorem is a^2+b^2=c^2

Using this, and A & B we can plug them in

We get 49+49=c^2

98=c^2

we can square root both sides to get

sqrt98=c^2

or 9.9(rounded to the nearest 10th)
