Answer:

Length of missing side is 10.44/ √106.

Explanation:

Here we have

A right triangle with

1st side = a = 5

2nd sidd = b = 9

and , we need to find 3rd side of triangle

let the 3rd side be x.

Using Pythagoras theorem

a ² + b ² = c ²

( 5 ) ² + ( 9 ) ² = ( c)²

25 + 81 = ( c) ²

106 = ( c) ²

Taking square root of each side

√106 = √ c ²

√106 = c

10.44 = c

So, missing side if triangle is 10.44 /√106.

Answer:

sqrt(106) =c

Explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2+b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

5^2 +9^2 = c^2

25+81 = c^2

106 = c^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(106)= sqrt(c^2)

sqrt(106) =c
