By the Pythagoras theorem, in a right triangle with the sides being a and b,

 a² + b² = Hypotenuse²

Hypotenuse² = 4² + 4²

Hypotenuse² = 16 + 16 = 2*16

Hypotenuse = √2 * √16

Thus, hypotenuse = 4√2

You would use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for the hypotenuse in a right triangle. 
a^2 + b^2 = <span>c^<span>2
</span></span>c being the hypotenuse and a and b being the two legs
The square of 4 is 16, so
16+16=c^2
32=c^2
Now you have to find the square root of 32 to solve for the hypotenuse
The square root of 32 in radical form is equal to 4√2

Your answer is 4√2

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

First, I multiply 214×1,218, and then place the decimal four places to the left. Since there's only one negative number in the equation, I know that the answer will be a negative integer, and I place the negative sign in front of my answer.

Hope this helps!

Charra [1.4K]
The angles diagonally opposite each other are congruent while those adjacent to each other add up to 180 degrees. You can get eight congruent angles with a transversal if the two lines are parallel, because each angle would be 90.
