Answer:


AB \approx 70.7

Explanation:

This is a right triangle.

We have sides:


BC=52


AC=48

In order to find the other side, you can use the Pythagorean theorem:


a^2+b^2=c^2

as 'c' equal to the hypotenuse and, 'a' and 'b' are legs or cathetus.

For this triangle,


AC^2+BC^2=AB^2


48^2+52^2=AB^2


2304+2704=AB^2


AB=√(5008)=4√(313)


AB \approx 70.7
