Answer:

41

Explanation:

This is a pythagorean theorem question, which is represented by the formula
a^(2) + b^(2) = c^(2)

c always represents the hypotenuse, which is the longest side of the triangle

your two given numbers are represented by a and b

plug in the two numbers into the formula and solve. the formula should look like this:
9^(2) + 40^(2) =c^(2)

it should then be: 81+1600=
c^(2)

Add the two numbers and take the square root
