Answer:

1.4 =c

Explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 +b^2 = c^2

where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

1^2+1^2 = c^2

1+1 = c^2

2 = c^2

We need to find the square root

sqrt(2) = sqrt(c^2)

1.414213562 =c

To the nearest tenth

1.4 =c
