The Pythagorean theorem is the idea that the sum of the two legs which are both squared is equal to the hypotenuse's length squared.
*<em>look at the image I attached for a better explanation</em>
By looking at the picture, we are missing the leg's length, and by using the Pythagorean theorem, we get the equation

Thus the <u>missing side length is 12 cm</u>
Hope that helps!
<h3>Yes, this is true.</h3>
To be considered similar triangles, the angles must be the exact same, and the sides must be proportional. The side lengths do not have to be exactly the same, but they must be proportional (like a ratio, suppose one triangle has a side length of 1, and the similar triangle has a side length of 3. The ratio is 1:3, and all sides will follow this ratio.)
$78.17 rounds to $78
15% of $78 = $11.70 which rounds to $12
The answer is a and remember to use the pythagorean theorem to answer these questions. The numbers are usually listed leg, leg, hypotenuse.
