Question

One of the legs of a right triangle measures 2 cm and the other leg measures 15 cm. Find the measure of the hypotenuse. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth. Hurry

Answer 1

c = 15.1

Explanation:

Formula:

a² + b² = c²

15² + 2² = c²

225 + 4 = c²

229 = c²

`√(c^2) =√(229)`

c = 15.1
