Answer 1

13.2 centimeters

Explanation:

Finding the missing side

• (?)² + (9)² = (16)²
• ?² + 81 = 256
• ?² = 175
• ? = √175
• ? = 13.2 centimeters

Answer 2

Hey mate ,

In this question we have given the length of hypotenuse and base of a right angle triangle and asked us to find the perpendicular length

• Hypotenuse = 16cm
• base = 9cm

According to Pythagoras theorem ,

Hypotenuse² = Perpendicular²+base²

16cm² = (P)² + 9cm²

256 - 81 cm = P²

√175 cm = P

Perpendicular = 13.22 cm
