Answer:

Below

Explanation:

You can use Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse of a right triangle.

a2 + b2 = c2

The square root of 15 = 3.8729.... (a bunch of other numbers)

4^2 + 3.8729^2 = c2

16 + 15 = 31

Now that you have this, you need to find the square root

The square root of 31 = 5.56775436

Rounding this to the tenth it would be: 5.57

Final answer: C = 5.57

hope this helps! :)
