Find the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose legs both have a length of 5.
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Hypotenuse = 7.07 units.

Explanation:

The sides of the right angle triangle are the opposite and adjacent side; which are both equal in this case.

Given the following data;

Opposite = 5 units

Adjacent = 5 units

To find the hypotenuse, we would use the Pythagorean theorem given by the formula;

Hypotenuse² = opposite² + adjacent²

Hypotenuse² = 5² + 5²

Hypotenuse² = 25 + 25

Hypotenuse² = 50

Hypotenuse = √50

Taking the square root of both sides, we have;

Hypotenuse = 7.07 units.
