Question

Which expression represents the length of the hypotenuse, c, of the triangle below?

Pleaseeeeee I neeed helpppp

Answer 1

Square root a^2 + b^2
The third one from the right

Answer 2

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

Explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem states that for a right triangle, the relationship between its three sides is
`a^(2) +b^(2) =c^(2)` where
`a` and
`b` are side lengths and
`c` is the length of the hypotenuse. This means that the length of the hypotenuse is
`c=\sqrt{a^(2) +b^(2) }` by taking the square root of both sides to solve for
`c`, making option C correct.
