Answer:

5.62

Explanation:

A^2 + B^2 = C^2

A^2 + 2.6^2 = 6.2^2

A^2 + 6.76 = 38.44

- 6.76 - 6.76

A = 31.68

A^2 = 5.62

Hello!
So you will use the Pythagorean Theron equation which is Asquare + bsquare=C square
Plug in what you are given to find the missing piece

A square+ (2.6)square= (6.2) square
Asquare+ 6.76= 38.44
(Subtract 6.76to both sides to isolate A)
Asquare= 31.68
(Take the square root of both sides to find out what A is)
A=5.628
