Question

Consider the right triangle. A right triangles with side lengths 28 meters and 45 meters. The hypotenuse is unknown. What is the length of the hypotenuse StartRoot 53 EndRoot StartRoot 1,241 EndRoot 53 m 2809 m

Answer 1

The get the answer do as follows:
1) a^2 + b^2 = c^2
2) your a=28 & b=45
3) 28^2=784 and 45^2=2,025
4) 748+2,025= 2,773
5) now you have 2,773= c^2 [solve for c by square rooting both sides]
6) the square root of 2,773 is approximately 52.6

Answer 2

C. 53

Explanation:

a²+b²=c²

28²+45²=c²

784+2025=c²

c²=
`√(2809)`

c = 53
