In the rectangular prism below, the length of MR is 8 inches, the length of RS is 9 inches, and the length of ST is 12 inches.

What is the length of a line segment drawn from point T to point M?

Explanation:

if these are the lenghs you meant the we use this formula


{a}^(2) + {b}^(2) = {c}^(2)

12^2+8^2=c^2

144+64=208


{c}^(2) = 208

c=14.22

Answer:

17

Explanation:

(RS)2 + (ST)2 = (RT)2

(9 in)2 + (12 in)2 = (RT)2

81 in2 + 144 in2 = (RT)2

225 in2 = (RT)2

15 in = RT
