You’d use pythagoras theorem for this answer. Use the formula h²= a²+b², where h is the hypotenuse. Here’s the step by step:
h²= a²+b²
x²= 18 ²+80 ²
x ²= 324+6400
x ²= 6724
then find the square root of 6724 (I can’t find the symbol on my phone lol) which is 82cm. So that means that h=82cm/c=82cm.
Hope that helped!!
