Hey there! :) 

In order to the find the missing side length of this triangle, we'll need to use the Pythagorean Theorem! 

That equation is : a² + b² = c²

a = adjacent side

b = long side of rectangle

c = hypotenuse

We're already given the values of both a & c, so let's plug everything in! 

a² + b² = c²  → a = 10 , b = ? , c = 20

(10²) + b² = (20²)

Simplify.

100 + b² = 400

Subtract 100 from both sides.

b² = 400 - 100

Simplify.

b² = 300

Get the square root of b² & 300.

\sqrt{b^2} =  \sqrt{300}

Simplify!

b = 17.3

So, the missing side length is the first answer choice : 17.3

~Hope I helped!~

If puppy weighs 23 pounds and he has been gaining 3 pounds every month as he grows, you can calculate how much will the puppy weigh 5 months from now using the following steps:

23 pounds + 5 months * 3 pounds every month = 23 pounds + 15 pounds = 38 pounds

Result: Puppy will weigh 38 pounds 5 months from now.
