answer = √(97) \: units \: \\ solution \\ perpendicular = 4 \\ base = 9 \\ hypotenuse = </em></strong><strong><em>?</em></strong><strong><em>\\ using \: pythagorus \: theorem \\ {h}^(2) = {p}^(2) + {b}^(2) \\ or \: {h}^(2) = {(4)}^(2) + {(9)}^(2) \\ or \: {h}^(2) = \: 16 + 81 \\ or \: {h}^(2) = 97 \\ or \: h = √(97) \: units \\ hope \: it \: helps
