16 is 4% of 400

Change the percentage into a decimal by dividing the decimal over 100:

Find the length of the missing side. triangle with an 8 inch side and 12 inch side with a right angle 8.9 in. 104 in. 4 in 14.4

Mamont248 [21]

Given:

In a triangle, length of one side is 8 inches and length of another side is 12 inches, and an angle is a right angle.

To find:

The length of the missing side.

Solution:

In a right angle triangle,

$Hypotenuse^2=Perpendicular^2+Base^2$

Suppose the measures of sides adjacent to the right angle are 8 inches and 12 inches.

Substituting Perpendicular = 8 inches and Base = 12 inches, we get

$Hypotenuse^2=8^2+12^2$

$Hypotenuse^2=64+144$

$Hypotenuse^2=208$

Taking square root on both sides, we get

$Hypotenuse=\sqrt{208}$

$Hypotenuse=14.422205$

$Hypotenuse\approx 14.4$

The length of the missing side is 14.4 inches. Therefore, the correct option is D.
