Answer:

b = 63

Explanation:

In a right angled triangle, hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the square of the other sides.

c² = a² + b² (where c is the hypotenuse, and a and b are the other two sides)

c = 65 , a = 16 b = ?

65² = 16² + b²

4225 = 256 + b²

4225 - 256 = b²

b² = 3969

b =
√(3969)

b = 63

check

c² = 16 ² + 63²

= 256 + 3969

= 4225

c = √4225

c = 65

Answer:

hello

Explanation:

a²+b²=c²

16²+b²=65²

256+b²=4225

b²=4225-256

b²=3969


b = √(3969)

b=63

b=63 mi

have a nice day
