Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with the two sides of a right angled triangle having lengths of 5 and 13. It is required to find the length of the third side of a right triangle. We know that hypotenuse of right angled triangle is the longest side.

For right angle triangle, we use Pythagoras theorem as :

H²=P²+B²

P is perpendicular distance

B is base

Putting H = 13 and P = 5, then

B² = H²-P²

B² = (13)²-(5)²

B²=144

B=12

So, the length if the third side of a right triangle is 12. It is the only solution.

Across which Axis was point H reflected?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

X - axis

Step-by-step explanation:

H(9, - 1) \rightarrow H'(9, 1)

Since in the above reflection x coordinate remains the same and y-coordinate changes from 1 to - 1, hence point H is reflecting across X - axis.
