Hi there!


\large\boxed{r\approx 10.6 cm}

Solve for the radius using the pythagorean theorem:

a² + b² = c²

We know the lengths of the hypotenuse and one leg, so:

a = 12

b = ?

c = 16

Plug these into the equation:

12² + b² = 16²

Simplify:

144 + b² = 256

Subtract both sides by 144:

b² = 112

Take the square root:

b ≈ 10.6

Thus the radius is about 10.6 cm.
