Question

What is the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle below?​

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is right with hypotenuse h

Use Pythagoras' identity to solve for h

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides, that is

h² = ( 5$\sqrt{2}$ )² + ( 5$\sqrt{2}$ )²

   = 50 + 5 0 = 100

Take the square root of both sides

h = $\sqrt{100}$ = 10 → C
