Answer: c=4\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise you need to apply the Pythagorean Theorem. This is:

h^2=l^2+m^2

Where "h" is the hypotenuse of the Right triangle and "l" and "m" are the legs.

In this case, you can identify that:

h=c\\\\l=a=4\\\\m=b=4

Knowing these values, you can substitute them into  h^2=l^2+m^2:

c^2=4^2+4^2

Now you must solve for "c":

c=\sqrt{4^2+4^2}

Evaluating, you get:

c=\sqrt{16+16}\\\\c=\sqrt{32}

To simplify the result:

- Descompose 32 into its prime factors:

32=2*2*2*2*2=2^5

- By the Product of powers property, you know that:

2^5=2^4*2

- Make the substitution:

c=\sqrt{2^4*2}

- Finally, knowing that \sqrt[n]{a^n}=a, you get:

c=2^2\sqrt{2}\\\\c=4\sqrt{2}

Triangle ABC has side lengths:

The length of HJ is 3.5 cm

<h3>What is Congruency?</h3>

Two geometric figures are said to be congruent, or to be in the relation of congruence, if it is possible to superpose one of them on the other so that they coincide throughout.

Given:

AB = 3.5 cm, BC = 2.4 cm, and AC = 4.2 cm

As, ΔABC ≅ ΔHJK

So,

AB = HJ

BC = JK

AC = HK

Thus, HJ= AB = 3.5 cm
