Answer:
short leg = 4
hypotenuse = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>longer leg </u>
12 = x root 3
find x where you will square both sides
x = square root of 48
in surd form is x = 4 root 3
<u>short leg</u>
therefore x = x
x= 4 root 3
<u>Hypotenuse</u>
Y = 2x
Y = 2( 4 root 3)
Y = 8 root 3
2.9 m
You want to round so that there is only one number after the decimal.
The number after 8 is 9, which would allow you to round up to the next number.

okay so sorry i couldn't get it i need more information.
Answer:
Given: △ABC, m∠B=90° AB=12, BC=16, BK ⊥ AC . Find: AC and BK.
Given: △ABC, m∠B=90°
Find: AC and BK.
Short leg 90 degrees Long leg Hypotenuse
AB=12 90 BC=16 AC= ?
AK = ? 90 BK = ? AB=12
AC = SQRT (AB*AB + BC*BC) = 20 [right triangle; Pythagorean Theorem]
Similar triangles:[Note: In diagram, share two angles. Therefore share three angles]
BK / 16 = AB / AC
BK / 16 = 12 / 20
BK = (3/5)16
BK = 48/5
another answer let see this
AB^2+BC^2=AC^2
12^2+16^2=AC^2
144+256=AC^2
400=AC^2
20=AC
