\small\star\underline\bold\red{Given-}

Sides of the right triangle

  • 2√3 (p)
  • 3√2 (b)


\small\star\underline\bold\red{To\:Find-}

  • Third side (hypotenuse)


\small\star\underline\bold\red{Solution-}

By Pythagoras Theorum ,


\small\fcolorbox{red}{white}{h² = b² + p² }


\implies h² = (2√3)² + (3√2)²


\implies h² = 12 + 18


\implies h² = 30


\implies h = √30

Answer:


√(30)

Explanation:

Given,

Perpendicular ( p ) = 32

Base ( b ) = 23

Hypotenuse ( h ) = ?

Now, let's find the length of the hypotenuse:

Using Pythagoras theorem:


{h}^(2) = {p}^(2) + {b}^(2)

plug the values


{h}^(2) = {(3 √(2) )}^(2) + {(2 √(3) )}^(2)

To raise a product to a power, raise each factor to that power


{h}^(2) = 9 * 2 + 4 * 3

Multiply the numbers


{h}^(2) = 18 + 12

Add the numbers


{h }^(2) = 30

Take the square root of both sides of the equation


h = √(30)

Hope this helps...

Best regards!!
