Question

Can someone pls help ASAP

Answer 1

89.44

Explanation:

using the Pythagorean Theorem:
`a^(2) +b^(2)=c^(2)`

`80^(2) +b^(2) =120^(2) \\6400+b^(2) =14400\\b^(2) = 8000\\b = 40√(5)`

120 is the hypotenuse so it would be c in the equation.

To solve, I simplified and isolated the variable. I got the square root of 8000 simplified (but idk how to write that out lol)

This answer is closest to 89.44
