The Subduction process takes place when denser oceanic plates are forces beneath the continental plates.

<u>Explanation: </u>

A geological process occurring at tectonic plate's convergent boundaries is a subduction process. In this process one plate moves beneath another plate and this makes to sink because of presence of gravity in the mantle.  

The zone in which this process occurs is called as subduction zones. A stable subduction zone is one that involves the plates the oceanic lithosphere to slide beneath the continental of another plate because of the oceanic lithosphere's high density.

(Please help/ hurry) Find the length of the third side, If necessary, write in simplest radical form
Neko [114]

Answer:

The length of the third side is 2.

Explanation:

According to figure, we have a right triangle. The missing length can be determined by Pythagorean Theorem:

r^{2} = s^{2} + l^{2} (1)

Where:

r - Hypotenuse.

s, l - Legs.

If we know that r = 2\sqrt{5} and l = 4, then the missing length is:

s = \sqrt{r^{2}-l^{2}} (2)

s = \sqrt{20-16}

s = \sqrt{4}

s = 2

The length of the third side is 2.
