Question

Which is the length of the hypotenuse of the right triangle? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a centimeter.

Answer 1

Hypotenous^2=10^2+16^2
hypotenous= 18.8679cm

Answer 2

Answer:18.87

Explanation:

to find the hypotenuse of a triangle, A^2 + B^2 = C^2 if A and B are sides and C is the Hypotenuse. 100 + 256 is 356, so C^2 is 356. to find C, we square root both sides. thus C^2 becomes C, and 356 becomes the square root of 356, which is 18.8679623... and rounded to the nearest 10th of a centimeter that's 18.87

Hope this helps!
