Question

What is the length of the hypotonic the triangle ?

Answer 1

Answer:

37 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem:

$leg^2+leg^2=hypotenuse^2$

We have

$lef=12ft,\ leg=35ft,\ hypotenuse=AB$

Substitute:

$AB^2=12^2+35^2\\\\AB^2=144+1225\\\\AB^2=1369\to AB=\sqrt{1369}\\\\AB=37$
