Question

Help plzzzzz! it's math and I'll give 30 points ​

Answer 1

`√(45)`

Explanation:

Hi there,

In order to solve this problem, you have to know the Pythagorean Theorem:

`a^(2)` +
`b^(2)` =
`c^(2)`

We can see from the graph that line segment ML and LN are 6 and 3 units respectively. Since we know the lengths of two sides of the triangle, we can use the theorem above to find the hypotenuse (MN).

⇒
`6^(2)` +
`3^(2)` =
`c^(2)`

⇒ 45 =
`c^(2)`

⇒ c =
`√(45)`

Hope this explanation helps. Cheers.
