Question

Find the length of the third side. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

9.8

Explanation:

To solve, use the Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c² or c² - b² = a².

"a" and "b" are both legs of the right triangle. "c" is the hypotenuse. In this case, we need to use this formula: 14² - 10² = a² or 196 - 100 = a². This simplifies to 96 = a². This can simplify further to 9.79795897 = a. Round this to the nearest tenth: 9.8 = a.

Hope it helps!

Answer 2

The third side would be 9.79 rounded to the nearest tenth equals 9.8

Answer=9.8
