Answer:

c = 68

Explanation:

Use pythagorean theorem, which states that
a^(2) +b^(2) =c^(2).

In this diagram, we are given the values of a and b.

a = 32 b = 60

Simply put these into the equation.

(32)^2 + (60)^2 = c^2

1024 + 3600 = c^2

4624 = c^2

Find the square root of both sides to solve for c.


√(4624) = c

c = 68
