Answer:

c = 80 inches

Explanation:

The length of the hypotenuse can be found by using the following formula in which "c" is the length of the hypotenuse, and "a" and "b" are the legs of the right angles triangle.


c = \sqrt{a^(2) + b^(2) }


c= \sqrt{64^(2) + 48^(2) } \\c= √(4096 + 2304) \\c = √(6400) \\c = 80 inches

Answer:

Hello! answer: 80

Explanation:

When doing the Pythagorean theorem you do...

a^2+b^2=c^2 which is just A multiplied byitself + B multiplied byitself that will equal the number that C multiplied by itself would equal then you just figure out what multiplied byitself equals that number and thats the answer so...

64 × 64 = 4096 48 × 48 = 2304

4096 + 2304 = 6400 80 × 80 = 6400 therefore c = 80 hope that helps!
