Question

Ruth develops a blueprint with the help of a triangle. The longest side of the instrument measures 14 inches and one of the sides measures 12 inches.

Answer 1

The other side is sqrt(52) units or 7.21110255 units

Explanation:

I'm assuming you want the other side of the triangle, which you would use the Pythagorean theorem for.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

12^2 + b^2 = 14^2

144 + b^2 = 196

b^2 = 52

b = sqrt(52) or 7.21110255
