Answer: ≈ 1.4.

Step-by-step explanation: To find the hypotenuse of a triangle (the longest side of a triangle), you need to add the legs (the two sides of the triangle that are not the hypotenuse). You need to have ^2 when adding each leg. For example, both legs are 1 so when you're adding them, the equation should look like this--> 1^2 + 1^2. Then, once you find the answer to that, you need to find the square root of the answer. The work is done below:

1^2 + 1^2 = 2.

√2 ≈ 1.41421356 or ≈ 1.4.

Therefore, your answer is ≈ 1.4.

Let me know if this is right! :)
