Given:

Given that the length of the two legs of the right triangle are 28 m and 45 m.

We need to determine the length of the hypotenuse.

Length of the hypotenuse:

The length of the hypotenuse can be determined using the Pythagorean theorem.

Thus, we have;


hyp^2=28^2+45^2

Simplifying, we get;


hyp^2=784+2025


hyp^2=2809

Taking square root on both sides, we get;


hyp=√(2809)


hyp=53 \ m

Thus, the length of the hypotenuse is 53 m

Hence, Option C is the correct answer.
