The length of hypotenuse is 39.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Vertical side = a = 15

Horizontal side = b = 36

Hypotenuse = c

Using pythagorean theorem

$a^2+b^2=c^2\\(15)^2+(36)^2=c^2\\225+1296=c^2\\1521=c^2\\c^2=1521$

Taking square root on both sides

$\sqrt{c^2}=\sqrt{1521}\\c=39$

The length of hypotenuse is 39.

My answer would be 8.. I may not be correct, but I tried. So, I placed the numbers from least to greatest and split it 1’s and 2’s VS 3’s and 4’s. I just added 1 plus 2 plus 2 and a half plus 2 and a half and got 8. I also added (3+3+3)+3 and a half plus 3
