Question

The two legs of a right triangle measure 2 and 6 meters. How long is the hypotenuse?

Answer 1

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

The pythagorean equation states that a^2+b^2=c^2, with c^2 being the hypotenuse and a^2 and b^2 being the legs. if you input the values into the formula you get 2^2 + 6^2 = 40. 40 does not square evenly so you have to convert √40 into simplest radical form. when you do this you get 2√10
