The Pythagorean Theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a^2 = c^2 - b^2 where a and b = legs and c = hypotenuse

a^2 = 100^2 - 60^2

a^2 =10000 - 3600

a^2 = 6400

a= √6400

a = 80

Answer

The length of the other leg = 80 units

For this, we will be using the pythagorean theorem, which is leg^2+leg^2=hypotenuse^2 . Since we have the hypotenuse and one of the legs, we can solve for the other leg. Our equation will look like this: x^2+60^2=100^2

Firstly, solve the exponents: x^2+3600=10000

Next, subtract 3600 on both sides: x^2=6400

Next, square root both sides, and your answer will be x = 80 units

10 divisions between $389$ and $390$ so each division is $\frac{390-389}{10}=0.1$

A is 8 division from $389$, so, A is $389+8\times 0.1=389.8$

similarly, C is one division behind $389$ so it is $389-1\times 0.1=388.9$

and B is $390.3$
