Question

Can someone remind me how to do this again?

Answer 1

Answer:

This the formula for the Pythagorean Theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the formula for the Pythagorean Theorem but its written in a different way but it will give you the same answer.

So first you will be given two sides which will be represented as leg a and leg b.

So you would plug in the two numbers in the equation c = square root of 18^2 + 12^2

Now you would find 18^2 which equals 324

Then you would find 12^2 which equals 144

Add them together and get 468

To get what c equals or the hypotenuse you have to find the square root of 468.

The square root of 468 is 21.633 but you round it to the nearest tenth and get 21.6
