Question

Which equation could be used to find the length of the hypotenuse?

Answer 1

ay duud yo answer is A.

Answer 2

Option A:
`$6^(2)+11^(2)=c^(2)$` is the length of the hypotenuse

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure, we can see that the given triangle is a right angled triangle.

Hence, we can determine the length of the hypotenuse using Pythagoras theorem.

Thus, we have,

`$a^(2)+b^(2)=c^(2)$`

where a and b are the lengths of the sides of the triangle. And c is the hypotenuse.

Thus, substituting the lengths of the sides
`a=6` ,
`b=11` and
`c=c` is the hypotenuse.

Substituting these values in the equation, we get,

`$6^(2)+11^(2)=c^(2)$`

Thus, the length of the hypotenuse is
`$6^(2)+11^(2)=c^(2)$`
