The length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with sides that measure 7 cm and 24 cm is 25 cm

<u>Solution:</u>

Given a right angled triangle,

The sides measure 7 cm and 24 cm

We have to find the length of hypotenuse

For a right angled triangle, by Pythagorean theorem, which states that the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of squares of the lengths of other two sides of the right-angled triangle.

From above definition we get,

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

Where, "c" is the length of hypotenuse

"a" is the length of one side of triangle

"b" is the length of other side of triangle

Here, a = 7 and b = 24 and c = ?

c^2 = 7^2 + 24^2\\\\c^2 = 49 + 576 = 625

Taking square root on both sides,

c = \sqrt{625}\\\\c = 25

Hence the length of hypotenuse is 25 cm

aalyn [17]

Answer:

Correct option: 2 -> sqrt(37)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we just need to use the law of cosines. This law is used to find the third side of a triangle, when we have the two other sides and the angle between them.

The equation of the law of cosines is:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2 * a * b * cos(C)

So, we have that:

c^2 = 7^2 + 3^2 - 2 * 7 * 3 * (1/2)

c^2 = 49 + 9 - 21

c^2 = 37

c = sqrt(37)

Correct option: 2
