Answer:

This is pythagoras

A squared plus b squared equals c squared.

The unknown side is c as its the hypotenuse,

So the length of the first side is 6.4 this squared = 40.96

The other length is 12 as 6 is the radius so the diameter of the circle amd therfore the length of the triangle is 12.

12 squared is 144

144 + 40.96 = 184.96

The length of c squared is 184.96

To find the length of c alone we calculate the square root.

The square root of 184.96 = 13.6

? = 13.6
