Question

Is the missing side length a leg or the hypotenuse?

Answer 1

the missing side is

`\sqrt{9 {}^(2) + 12 {}^(2) } = 15 \: yards`

Answer 2

Answer: Hypotenuse

Explanation:

This is a right triangle because it has a right angle, and the longest side of a right triangle is the Hypotenuse. The question mark in this image is asking about the longest side of this triangle, so therefore, it is the hypotenuse, not a leg.
