What is the length of the missing leg 15 and 9 meters

Mathematics
1 answer:
Brilliant_brown [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: 12

Step-by-step explanation: I assume you are talking about a triangle in which the Hypotenuse is 15 and leg A is 9

in this case we have to use a reverse pythagorean theorem

the original one is a^ + b^ = c^ then reverse it to get c^ - a ^ = b^

we know that C is 15 and A is 9 so substitute

15^ - 9^ = b^

15 ^ = 225 and 9^ = 81 so substitute again

225 - 81 = b^ then subtract

144 = b^  you know that the square root of 144 is 12 because 12 x 12 = 144

so 12 is the last side

hope this helps mark me brainliest if it did

Add 3, multiply by 3, and take the positive square root.

The positive solution to the equation is x = 3.
