Answer:

=> The third side of the triangle is 53 mm

Explanation:

We know that this is a right angled triangle ,

so , by using Pythagoras theorem we can find out the third side of the triangle ,

=> P²+B²= H²

=> 7²+2² = H²

=> 49+4 = H²

=> 53 = H²

=> √53 = H

The third side of the triangle is 53mm
