Given : The length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is 15 in.
The length of one leg = 6 in.
Let <em>x </em>be the length of other leg, then
According to Pythagoras theorem ,we have
Hypotenuse² = Perpendicular² + Base²

Hence, the length of the other leg is 
Thus , the correct answer is C. square root 189 in.
