Explanation:

AB²=BC²+CA²

(11)²=(4)²+ CA²

121=16 + CA²

121-16= CA²

105=CA²

√105=CA

10.2=CA

hope this helps you

have a good day

Answer:

AC = √105 ≈ 10 cm (nearest whole number)

Explanation:

Use Pythagoras' Theorem: a² + b² = c²

(where a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse of a right triangle)

Give one of the legs = 4cm and the hypotenuse = 11 cm:

⇒ 4² + AC² = 11²

⇒ 16 + AC² = 121

⇒ AC² = 121 - 16

⇒ AC² = 105

⇒ AC = ±√105

As distance is positive, length of AC = √105 ≈ 10 cm (nearest whole number)
