Answer:

C. √89

Explanation:

Step 1: Define/formula

This is a right triangle, so the Pythagorean Theorem applies.

The Pythagorean Theorem states that the legs of a right triangle, squared, must equal the hypotenuse, squared.

The legs of a triangle are the sides that form the right angle.

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is the longest side.

Step 2: Solve

Here, I am solving for the hypotenuse.


formula=a^2+b^2=c^2


a, b=legs


c=hypotenuse


5^2+8^2=c^2


25+64=c^2


89=c^2

Step 3: Conclude

Since the last step is to find the square root of 89, option 'C' is the right answer.
