Answer:

The length of the hypotenuse ≈ 39.7 cm

Explanation:

Since the given triangle is a right-angled triangle, this means that we can apply the Pythagorean theorem.

The equation for Pythagorean calculation is:

(hypotenuse)² = (first leg)² + (second leg)²

In the given, we have:

first leg = 30 cm

second leg = 26 cm

Substitute with the givens in the above equation to get the hypotenuse as follows:

(hypotenuse)² = (30)² + (26)²

(hypotenuse)² = 1576

This means that:

either hypotenuse = √1576 = 39.69 ≈ 39.7 cm ..........> accepted

or hypotenuse = -√1576 = -39.69 ......> rejected as length can't be negative

Hope this helps :)

When you have a multiplication problem, what do you do to the exponents?
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

When you multiply two numbers or variables with the same base, you simply add the exponents. When you multiply expressions with the same exponent but different bases, you multiply the bases and use the same exponent.
